Chiming in here about he Z1 2 piece. I had previously thought the same, more for showing vs going. But after redoing my brake cooling I'm not having issues with them any more. I want to say that the 370 ones are thinner than the 350 so they don't hold heat as well etc, but after redoing my stillen kit (moved the intake out from the "fang" area so its a better flow) 0 issues on the same rotors for a year, 4 full track weekends and a few single days. I'm assuming sometime next spring they will grow a serious crack vs the typical heat webbing and i'll replace them.

Brake cooling for Nismo bumpers

Also see first post for additional analysis on Z1 2 pc rotors

You guys need to be using Paragon. Stoptech or better quality, available in 48 vane, or endurance 72 vane (if you ask them). Great 2 piece rotor, motorsport grade stuff.

Thanks, that's the plan. Do you know if they do anything for black Friday?

So I just want to say that I really enjoy the Paragon rotors. Since my last comment, I've also added an APR 300 wing. This solved all ice mode issues and anything that involved the rear getting too light.

Here's a video of a 1:55 laptime (robbed from a 1:54) at Sonoma Raceway this past weekend. There's a clip of the rotors in here as well. Enjoy!
