I’m thinking about the brake parts, I’m using this car for summer time and 3-4 times on track of course safety first. Some of friend said you just need to upgrade the front brake like caliper brake pad and rotor but other said you have to do all brake parts so I need some suggestions from your experience
Thank you

Don’t upgrade your base brakes they work just fine for street but leave a lot to be desired on the track. If your Z sees any track duty install a Akebono sport brake upgrade kit front and rear. For the track you want Akebono sport brakes or better. Stainless steel brake lines front and rear. Don’t skimp on the brakes either you will wish you upgraded to really good brake pads. I always recommend the Carbotech brake pads expensive but well worth it though. You will need better brake fluid and you will have to completely bleed the brake system. Motul RBF 600, Motul 5.1, or similar brake fluid. You don’t want to boil your brake fluid on one of your track days. Also regarding your brakes you will need a brake cooling kit. Install the Stillen brake cooling kit or you can make your own too. Address your brake system before you hit the track and be safe out there.
