It's not warped, its uneven pad deposits. I've never had this problem since I got into a 370z, and I had the problem on both my 370z's. I had to have rotors machined twice on my 2011 and it still came back a third time. It happed on my 2013 as well.. this time I swapped the pads to StopTech Street pads when I had the rotors machined and it seems to have solved the issue, though it is too soon to tell for certain.

Yeap, the factory pads are horrible about pad deposits.

Good to know. I've never had this problem on any of my previous cars either. Looks like I'll be getting my rotors machined and new pads then. Thanks
