Don't know if anyone else answered this already, but according to the C&D article, it doesn't matter what brakes you're using. The problem is a matter of overheating, in their judgment, although it seems this is mainly an issue if you're putting your Z on a track.
The solution would be some sort of brake cooling modification. Tuners like Stillen may offer an answer via body panels that properly vent the brakes. The stock body panels focus more on aerodynamics for the purpose of fuel economy, but this leads to excessive heat build-up in heavy braking.
That's what I got from the article and this thread, anyway.
