Installed RacingBrake 2-piece Rotors for the Z Nismo

[Imperial]

These are 100% OE bolt-on replacements that require no permanent modifications to the vehicle (no trimming of the dust shield). I love the way they look, and you can definitely feel the difference in unsprung weight reduction. What really sold me on them is the iron sleeve they attach to the inner side of the aluminum alloy hat that maintains the full functionality of our parking brake and prolongs the hats life. My 370Z Nismo had Z1 2-piece rotors and the rear rotor hats got chewed up pretty quickly because it lacked this feature.

SKU: Z-IRK-380.350

I forgot to mention that they stock replacement pads for the upsized front brakes too.

Very nice! Thanks!

This is how they look now after completing RacingBrakes's pad break-in procedures.

I received my set. I'll post some pics in a few weeks, once they are installed on mine.

Congratulations on the purchase! What are your thoughts on the quality of these rotors? I personally think they’re the best 2-piece OE replacements in the market.

Thanks, I won't have an opinion until I get them installed in a few weeks. Hopefully they are an improvement over stock. I am tired of the squeaky noises and excessive break dust.

So how did your rotor installation go and how are you liking them?

I am very happy with the purchase. These reduced wheel weight making the Z feel more nimble, the rotors look great, they emit little dust, and have good stopping power.

I didn't realize how much dust the OE brakes produced until I made the swap. What a difference!

The dust, the squeaky noise, and the looks were the drivers for the swap for me.
