Well, fried either/both my Stoptech pads and/or Z1 slotted rotors. Horrible shake from any stops above 70, and noticeable at any stop from above 40. **** this, I'm selling the **** when I break even in it. Going back with what works and getting a nice American made (well, somewhat, nothing is 100% American anymore) vehicle. Above and beyond, this is the shittiest car I have owned. It's built like a Faberge egg. Gorgeous but tissue-paper soft. Yes, I have owned cars with more issues, but none below 100K miles. This thing was falling apart from the get-go. Nissan. Stick to shitty throw-away cars. It's what you do best, no-matter what you market it as.

If you like your vag-wagon, great. Maybe you only drive it to church and back each weekend, or maybe Nissan's quality is so variable that yours doesn't have issues. Lucky you. Some of us do drive spiritedly, and some of us apparently do have a ton of QC issues. Given all the rotors and pads I have been through, it's something to do with the geometry of the suspension up front (yes, it's been realigned already), or the lack of airflow, or something (Isn't that what totaled a NISMO at VIR?). Either way, this **** is for looking at, not driving. I drive.
