I didn't have issues with the OEM rotor. The pads on the other hand if they're OEM or Nismo pads, I'd definitely look for something better. Nissan changed the stock brake fluid on Nismo's back in 2013. I'm not sure if they did it across all Akebono equipped vehicles.
I've had good success running Winmax W5 pads. I replaced my front rotors with a DBA two piece set. I've gotten fast enough to run up to the limits of RBF600 using 2" ducts on a very hot day. Adjusting my braking helped keep me from hitting it again. I experienced this at Sebring where there are several heavy brake zones.
