Just throwing it out there since you have turned into a track rat.

That is interesting, I wonder if I had anything to do with it. So there building a 370z. I only say its funny.. I met the president at SCCA Track Night at AMP, last year (?) and we talked about the 370z...

Thanks for the compliment Track Rat

Yeap, The measurements are done and it will be an 8 week wait for the front and rear kits to be made. I will then go up for the install. After that, I guess the kit will be released for sale. Looks like the price will be around $4700 per axle plus pads at 1/2 price. So save your money if you are interested.

the honest truth, I forgot about it and I am in the beginning stages of making that decision. Seems this year, I have made a big step forward, that its time to consider those items....

I want the best I can get. I am not settling. It's my brakes. They have to work and the brake bias needs to be just like stock. I have spent big bucks on a Wilwood kit for my 1975 280z only to struggle to get it right and it is still not right. I have been down this road before. Essex are the folks I went too from a recommendation from someone on here that has had great results with their stuff.
