im having the problem right now when i bought the car (i bought it as an off lease) it had the problem they cut the rotors and it fixed the problem five months later i had the problem again so thats where im at now ive been dealing with it for a while and finally broke down and ordered the Z1 motorsports brake upgrade kit which comes with drilled and slotted rotors or slotted (your choice), braided steal brake lines, brake fluid (super blue or motul rbf600 +19$), and you get a choice of brake pads i got the hawks which was an extra 20$ i think? definitely something to look into if you would like to do brakes all around it costs about the same as the OEM parts if not a little cheaper im going to install mine tomorrow since it all just came in today ill let you guys know how they feel

Just sell the pos. These cars are made for seriously heavy modders (think brake ducting) and pretty boy posers. If you drive it, it won't work out. Airflow is the issue. It just bakes things in the wheel well.

Every vette owner I know has put brake ducts on their car and still crack one or two rotors a weekend.

Really? Mine came ducted from the factory. When i was at spring mountain in pahrump, we beat the **** out of them all day long. Nothing but tpms sensors died. The crew there said they usually get 12-14k miles and have only had a couple of clutch hydraulics go out on the '08 and newer cars.

All that's besides the point though, a 370z like mine won't even make it on the street, forget hotlapping it in Nevada, Lmao! What a joke. Like saying "I hear Ronnie Coleman took a break and benches 25# less, now.". Yeah. Okay. Get back to your two plates and the bar, lol
