Upgraded Brakes!

What brakes do you all run? Or want to run. I was looking at stop tech.

The Wilwood site doesn't show any specific kits for the 300zx anymore. I guess they quit supporting the car. All of the parts are still there and you can piece the kit together. When I priced the components out, for the fronts, it came to around $1200 for the rotors and calipers. That means that the Arizona Z car kit is not a bad price at all.

And same for the rears...... no Wilwood support, but you can piece your own kit together. Or just by the AZ Z kit.

The Stoptech rotors that Barry(nj) (sp) bought and posted here is the way to go, imho. 2-pc 350z rotorz for $584 a pair, or 1-pc for $278. Then buy or make the adapter brackets.
