If this is indeed the reality, then Nissan should fix the design flaw, no question.
Although, exclusive of this Car and Driver/Nismo mishap, I don't remember reading a Z road test/comparison test that panned the car's brakes. Not saying these mags are the authority, but Id think one of them would have mentioned unusually bad brake fade/performance during testing.
Bottom line, though, if the Z's basic brake design/setup is a proven safety issue, the manufacturer should step up.
