All I did was upgrade my rotors & pads. The improvements were very noticable. 60 - 0 was about 50ft shorter & it seems the faster I go the quicker they stop. I went with brembo slotted rotors & a soft compound brake pad. I got my parts from Stillen for a decent price. I payed $325 for all 4 rotors & the pads. I would say go with the powerslots, because they seem to keep that new look longer & with your big wheels you will probably be able to see the brakes pretty good....

for street use, replacing rotor to slotted, change brake pads, and convert into SS brake lines will be enough.

for track, you should definetly consider about BBk or 300zx brake assembly swap.

that's just IMO.

If you go with the 300ZX calipers and want excellent stopping cold and hot....brakeman pads. www.thebrakeman.com http://www.specialtyz.com/brakeman.htm
