I suspect the car and driver magazine accident was caused by ice mode and not pad failure. I was at the track for past three days and ice mode was activating almost every hard braking turn. It was scary as heck. Suspect if you aren't having issues your not aggressively braking.

I ended up disconnecting the abs fuse which Nissan put in a cluster of 3 fuses. The car with my monster front brakes had a slight rear bias. That rear bias may be the issue. If you are skilled with non abs braking that is cheapest fix.

Honestly I don't want to experience ice mode ever and I don't think pad changes are going to eliminate the issue. I may go with very expensive alternate abs system made for competition later on.
