Message 350Z Brembo/ST Testing

I know it's not a direct comparison of Brembo vs Akebono, but it gives good insight into how the larger diameter rotor compares. From what I see, stopping distances are insignificant and temperatures are slightly lower with the larger rotor. Factoring in the weight and conditions, it looks like the choice would come down to which was easiear/cheaper.

Has anyone experienced the change in bias when adding just the front Akebono's on the Z32?

My plan is 350Z Brembo front calipers and rotors with RP rear brackets/G37 rotors and possibly STI Brembo rear calipers. I know the rear pistons are the same size, but the rear pad is larger, thus I'm assuming a higher coefficent of friction. My goal is to balance the bias or equal what the 350 had.

1996 TT #61 of 300
