The Sport-Nismo version is probably much higher, I didn't bother to ask. When I mentioned ordering the kit myself from Z1, I was also told that Z1 rotors are pure crap and that I should stay away from them (I honestly don't believe that due to the fact that their rotors are centric core which is what Stoptech is). I understand trying to sell a customer your product but giving them bad info is not good business IMHO. Unfortunately I had my hopes up really high with this place expecting them to be a little more knowledgeable about Nissan in general.

The other bad news, a family member passed away recently and the memorial service is scheduled for this Saturday, so unfortunately I will not be able to make it to Naples Meet as much as I really want to go.

Now the good, I joined the South Florida Z-Club FB page, great group of people. Thanks Datsun for the info. I also decided to man up and do the brakes myself and order the bleeder, I just don't feel comfortable or confident that a shop will do a better install as myself and put as much care into it as I would.
