Installed slotted rotors, new pads, ss lines, and Motul. As always, a BIG thanks to dragonbreath. The man is a true friend and his wife is a saint.

Since my Z is non-Sport, and I couldn't fork over the funds to swap up to the Akebonos, I went with Z1's upgrade package. Not exactly sure who makes the rotors, but I read good things about them and decided to give it a shot. I picked up the package on Black Friday and got a really good deal. Comes with rotors (slotted, or slotted and drilled), several choices of pads, ss lines, and Motul 5.1 or Motul 600.

My Z should be a little more prepared for ZDayZ this May. Last year I had some brake fade on the Tail of the Dragon and things got, uh, interesting to say the least.

You took a right hand turn at under half a tank. Didn't you?? The upgrade kit is a good idea. Even just for the SS lines.

I wish that had been the issue. That would have been much less scary than going in "hot" in to a 90-degree turn with no braking until after crossing the dividing line. If that never happens again, that's just fine with me.

That just means you're ready for an upgrade to some sports car without abs. Hahahahha. You make me feel better about not owning a sport model. I'll have to get the z1 upgrade this spring. Definitely worth it.

I'm thinking another 1968 Moostang GT should fit the bill!

Considering getting Shine auto Spec-S side skirts and rear bumper add-ons. Had a hard time finding out much about them through search. Anyone here have them? If so, How was fitment and install?

Chances are will be putting an order in today for a new clutch, pressure plate, flywheel, and am going to order the Z1 CSC elim kit along with it.

Also should be expecting the CF hood and CF fenders here next week :yup:

You've been waiting on these for a while... Hope you get them in time for the canyon cruise on the 30th

It's only been since Dec. 2nd hahah so I'm just sitting at the 6 week mark and that is usually production time and then until they get it in their warehouse. They'll be here soon Just gotta keep forgetting I ordered them and before I know it it will feel like Christmas again lol :stirthepot:

I'm hoping to have the fenders, hood, clutch, flywheel, and csc installed before the 30th haha. Also Bima and I are watching the weather and will keep everyone informed on the cruise. Cause if it has rained within 3 days of the 30th, chances are we will be calling it off due to icy roads just so we don't have any unfortunate tragedies.
