Z to have Ceramic Brakes

[orclean1]

if the Z comes with the Proto rims and rotors either on the base or sport I be a buyer for sure . My only concern is the turbos with all that water cooling , plumbing BS and the sound will it damper the reliability ?

i hope it doesnt have ceramic brakes, or they are just an expensive option

Why?
I have them on my car…7 years old, I have yet to replace them, and they are my everyday ride

One quality that's usually ignored in any discussion of carbon-ceramic brakes is the high operating temps needed for optimum performance. You'll only get that at the racetrack, and Nissan engineers would be aware of that quality. It's an expensive option that wouldn't make ANY sense for a cost-sensitive car like the Z35.

Ceramic brake pads are very common on cars.
What the op is referring to is Carbon ceramic rotors.
There is no way Nissan is putting carbon ceramic rotors on the Z.
