Default Z1 370Z Performance Rotors Reviews?

I am needing to get some new rotors and was looking at the Z1 Performance Rotors. I have strong steering wheel vibration at hard high speed breaking. There is also a slight lip on the edge of the rotor. I tried hard braking to see if they would clear up, seemed like it worked a little while but not enough.

I was looking at getting the slotted Z1 Performance Rotors, they are just above OEM prices. I would love to get the 2 piece but I don't have the money.

They will see about 4 track weekends a year and about 20 autocross events a year. It is also my daily driver running OEM pads, about to install Z1 stainless steel lines and motul 600 also.

I have the normal slotted Z1 rotors and they feel like stock, but look a lot better. It's a good value for what they are. Them 2 piece ones tho...

I have the 2 piece slotted fronts and singles on the back....they are sexy and perform even better! You will feel some improvement with SS brake lines and motul 600.

If you are looking for the 2 piece z1 Akebono rotors I am taking mine off, I will machine them on a hunter brake lathe and sell them at a great price. PM me if you are interested.
