You don't even need VHB to apply them. Just do some threshold braking and heat up those calipers

Is this trembling common to all Z series/trims? As I know my Z is equipped with Nissan's sports brake. I have been satisfied with its performance, but I still feel annoying for the trembling.

How's yours? Or any suggestion for better brakes?

I don't know if you've fixed yours yet but mine was doing that lately when braking from 80mph or if its been really hot. I checked the brake fluid and it was between max and min so I added some brake fluid and fixed the problem. I also have the upgraded brakes.

What do you mean by the 'upgraded brakes' ?
