Not sure I understand you mean... with or without the eye roll.

I think what he means is on a 370z if you put more aggressive rear brakes. The result is the rear will lockup much quicker then the front will and in a turn loss of rear traction will cause the tail to spin out. While our cars are very similar they are different and maybe more aggressive may work, maybe it won't.

Exactly, maybe I misused the smiley, and I suspect it will have the same issue as most of the weight is in front, I may be wrong here but this is something I experienced personally.
