Question on 14" Rotors

Z1 Motorsports offers a 14" rotor, basic rotor, branded NVA. Does anyone have experience with these? I'm upgrading OEM non-sport rotors to sport calipers and rotors. Just need some input

Default Question on 14" Rotors

I'm upgrading OEM non-sport rotors to sport calipers and rotors.
Just need some input to help me feel more confident on my purchase.

Don't really need Slotted or Slotted and Drilled at the present time.

Thanks!

NVA = Nissan Value Advantage. They are aftermarket replacement that meet OEM specs. I don't see why there would be a problem.

The Z1 Motorsport 14” NVA rotor set up works very efficient a lot of people at the track use them with success. They do decrease your stopping time and help with rotor over heating at the track. If you plan on any track time get slotted or slotted/cross drilled rotors. Blank rotors work just fine for street duty. Make sure you select the correct brake pads for what you are using your Z for? Street duty or track duty or combination of street/track duty it matters?

Thanks for your input. I do not track my car, so it would be for street use only.

For street duty you will do just fine with Centric Posi-Quiet front and rear brake pads and the Z1 Motorsport 14” NVA front and rear blank rotors. It is also a great time since you are doing your brakes to flush your brake fluid and use better brake fluid like the Motul RBF 600 brake fluid.
