The whole set seems to fit my non Nismo with the Nismo wheels GREAT

Tell Jon Andrew the ásshole sent you, he'll give you 50% off.*






*in my dreams he sells them for that price, so don't expect that kind of deal here in the real world, lol. But call them up and tell Jon I sent you

They will fit, but I don't see the point unless you're tracking a good bit. You'll get more bang for your buck getting a good set of pads and fluid. Pads don't look as cool though I guess.

Default yes i am tracking

I went to the nurburgring on sunday. My oil temp was 270 and i noticed the brakes needed help. It is th best track in the world. It is very challenging. I am going to buy a oil cooler, these rotors. Any suggestions on HP other then FI.

I have the Z1 2-Piece front rotors, they are worth it for the weight savings alone. Pair them with a good pad and some new fluid and you should be good there.

I recommend the Fast Intentions Oil cooler, 34 row with pressed fittings.

For power without forced induction, your best bet is:

Intake: Stillen Gen 3
Intake Manifold: Z1
Headers: Fast Intentions Long Tube
Exhaust: Fast Intentions

Pair those with a good tune and you should be around 400 crank.

Good luck and take a video next time, Id love to see a Z running the ring!
