I ran Hawk HPS+ for the both DD and twice a year track events. Last year I switched over to Carbotech XPS-8 specifically for the Z Nationals track event at Barber in Birmingham. They worked awesome. Others were running at Barber with XPS-10s up front and 8s in the back as well.

So after asking around, the bottom line is that Nissan does not want these parts on non-RC cars.
It may be possible through back channels but if that were so, I couldn't tell you who to ask if I found some. Sorry folks.

Maybe someone will develop a replica set eventually. Sorry this didn't pan out.

After looking through their catalog there isn't that much "special" about their parts other than they are endorsing them. The pads they sell through the book are hawk pads as well. I took it as a good reference point. Unless there is some secret titanium alloy camshaft that they have in there that is only made for Nissan I'm not too worried anymore about RC this and RC that. The parts catalog I saw only had a couple parts for the 370 anyway. :-)
