Counterspace Garage is recommending their C2 pad with a new stock rotor and no additional cooling needed so I'll try that and re-visit 2 piece rotors and cooling if needed.
I see a few different stock Nismo front rotors, D3206-JL00CNW this part is $71. Does that seem correct or are there...
This was the other option I saw but I'm not familiar with the brand. The rotors seem nice but the front pad is $190 which seems a bit cheap for a track pad.
Do you have suggested specific brake mods? I’m thinking of the Paragon 2 piece rotors, pads TBD (waiting on carbotech response) and some type of cooling kit. There's a few for sale but I don't see many people actually using them.
I do have some slight knocking noise at full lock only when going ~40 mph, not sure if it's wheels or camber arms or something else so I can't say 100% they fit but other people are using them as well. Using -3.5 camber with SPL arms.

It was more on upshifts but the most recent day using less gears 0 missed shifts so not too worried about that for now.
Sounds like a lot of people using bigger brake kits I’ll have to look into for that side.
A few observations and question after 3 track days. First day stock with SRF Castrol brake fluid and Carbotech XP24 pads, pushed fairly hard and was impressed with most aspects, tires/braking/suspension, Sport+ with TC off throttle response was quite sensitive so mainly used Sport. A few times...
Thanks both for the responses. My Nismo suspension feels alight, it just seemed like I was lacking lots of grip. Was hoping not to have to buy entire coilovers and wanted to just try new wheels/tires so I was looking at the suspension upgrade just to make sure there's clearance but sounds like I...
Not pulling them enough is a possibility I'll keep an eye on, the other might be overheating which I forgot to monitor. Downshifting I understand the car can be picky but up-shifting at 6k is weird to have an issue. Came from a supra also, never happened to me in that car.
Has anyone seen issues with paddle shifting and the car not responding? On road course full throttle, going straight, shifting from 3rd to 4th, and 4th to 5th the car would refuse to shift a couple times a lap. I tried shifting earlier and later but still kept seeing the issue. There was no...
Have you seen any issues with the Nismo transmission not upshifting into 4th and 5th gear using paddles? I had this happen a few times every session. It happened trying to shift early and late.
