How about the Brembo 6 pot front calipers with Z1 2-piece rotors?

Didn't realize you have sport package with Akebono already. Yes they are good to an extend and I think for an upgrade you should look at AP racing, Bermbo, Stoptech and other high end companies. I didn't fully utilize the brakes until now, fuel starvation, oil overheat and tires were holding me back. In my local track, Toyobaru drivers uses their stock brakes with upgraded pads and R888 without issue, but depends on how aggressive, they change them more frequently. So, I don't see the 370z akebonos will be any worse than them for track day duty with better pads and tires.

This is an option I am considering, but not sure of brake distribution with the rear 2 pot, not finding any reviews as well to make my mind. I have them on my DD from factory and they are fantastic, but with rear 4-pot and I feel they are more front bias (maybe from oem pads, not sure).
