There is a couple of other complete brake kits out there that would probably work for you on the track as well as these with our two piece rotors would, but I am very confident in saying that there is no better brake kit out there for these cars at the price you can get this whole Akebono calipers and our two piece set up for. For information on these rotors look at the first post, if you have any more questions about them that wasn't covered, feel free to ask.
Another plus to this kit that I haven't mentioned is that because of these calipers being OEM Nissan, the brake pressure proportioning is perfect. It is a very good front to rear bias feel. I can't say that same thing about most any other after market brake caliper for these cars.

With the proper pads and brake fluid, these new RA, light weight/ two piece brake rotors legitimately turn this OEM Akebono brake kit into a true, real competition/ track worthy brake kit.... and at a fraction of the price of any comparable complete brake kit out there available for these cars.
Will the Carbotech xp10 front and xp8 rear pads with Motul RBF600 as the brake fluid be a good choice for use with your really great looking rotors? It was suggested to me at the track today to run a seperate set of rotors with bedded pads for track and swap out to the OEM rotors and pads for DD - your thoughts please.
