Nothing more than mental data and compairing it to what I read here. It's a very interesting issue that a lot of people have had.

I just wonder if there is slight difference in year model when speaking of this issue. No different than Nissan eliminating other small issue that have been known.

I was running XP8's all around now XP 10's front 8 rear on street tires (RE 11's). I know when I track I brake hard and feel I'm pretty good at it. I can't imagine it being any harder. I haven't mastered trail braking yet. I do go from some high speeds into some intensive braking zones like T10 at Road Atlanta where I feel if something was going to happen it woud there. But the tracks I have been to are not really that brake intensive either when it comes to continuous heat cycles. This tracks have good distance between zones.

Things I feel that has help is I have reduced some good weight from my car, brake ducts (ice mode would have to be a heat related issue also), and stiffer spring rates to help with weight transfer. I don't have much experience to bring to the table but my own experiences. Just trying to put it all together.
