I have heard many similar issues of oil cooling and brakes previously.. can you share some experiences in these fields in terms of at the tracks?

I don't plan to track the car immediately right away.. but I would like to know in particulars any concerning things you may have had in the past with your experiences from tracking your Z..

I read an article before, forgot it's from CarAndDriver or Road&Track, but what happen was they were doing hot laps with whole bunch of sports car and the NISMO was one of them. During one of the NISMO's hotlap, its brake just fade out completely and the whole car slammed into the barrier W/O any braking.

Later the magazine received a reply from NISSAN saying that the NISMO is NOT for track purpose.

Anyway, the magazine redo a braking with NISMO later on, and still the brake fading issue was serious. Eventually, they have to change the brake-fluid, then the brake line, then the pads, then the rotors.

Oil temperature, is a serious issue when tracking a Z, I don't track my Z, but if you do a search in this forum, you'll find TONS of members talk about it.

By the way, why you like the NISMO so much?

For the extra bucks, you can mod a base Z to a better one, at least for the brake, add an oil cooler and your choice of wheels and tires, LOL.


just my 2cents.
