Looking into this and then 2 piece rotors in the rear. Remove all the current ebrake hardware http://www.tsmmfg.com/003-1.jpg

That's a very interesting way of doing it.

What's your reason behind the 2 pc rotors on the rear?

Loose weight. Without the iron hat for the e brake I shouls loose 8-10 per rotor.

The current 2 piece rears only loose 2-3 pounds

I loose a bunch of retational mass and all the E brake sprung weight. Should make a huge change in rear dampining- lighter softer quiet.

Thought about inboard disk but I no longer have direct access to the aerospace manufacturing plant I use to work for.

Default Differential Brake

Is this available for the 370Z in kit form or does it have to be adapted?

I will prototype it and if there is interest I'll make some. Rotor will come from ZX6r motorcycle an adapter plate to mount it to the diff, custom bracket mount to two foward bolt. I'll buy a caliper.
