Changing brakes and rotors
I have the sport / touring. I was just about to order new rotors and pads but I wanted to triple check Im getting the correct ones. My calipers say Nissan on them, not aki, and my front and back rotors are different sizes. Looking at my options online, all 4 rotors seems ro alwaya be the same size?
Ive attaches pics of current rotors Send help |

Sport brakes are Akebonos. Different size calipers, pads and rotors for front and rear. If you order online, just make sure you specify front or rear. The pics they post can be generic pics.

Yeah my Z1 slots were not machined correctly so after awhile of driving I noticed 1 and a half slots had gone missing on one of the front rotors. I've been using Frozenrotors blanks and they hold up well and don't cost much.

I've used Centric premium blanks from RockAuto on all my cars for years with no problems. I use them on the track also. I'm sure I'll get flames for not buying my rotors from either Nissan or z1, but this is also an option
