EBC Rotors

Crap in general or just for track use? I have actually been looking at the DBA 5000 as an alternative so it's good to hear those aren't a bad brand.

They are perfectly fine for DD use. Pads are a more significant factor on the street.

But I doubt the EBC rotors can handle sustained threshold braking any better than the stock rotors (i.e. they can't). Those 2 piece rotors osbornsm listed are tried and true, although the Z1 kit is by far the newest to market.

Talking

I use the EBC rotors and Yellowstuff pads on my 4x4 pulling a 10,000 lbs camper with no problems in the Smokey Mountains. Also use the same set up on my Jeep Grand Cherokee. On my Z. Have used the Yellowstuff pads with Racing Brake 2 piece rotors for DD and trackdays. Since my experience on the track is increasing. My next set of pads will be 10's and 8's for the Z. For what the OP is wanting to do. He will be fine with the EBC stuff. But if the OP starts to go harder. Then up grade to better stuff.
