Message	you are just seeing how the bar moves. 1989 Car and driver: Beefy four-wheel vented disc brakes with four-piston front calipers and standard ABS-stop the Z from 70 mph in 171 feet. We observed no signs of fade during repeated hard trials. I looked quickly but didn't find it the article that put it into the best, but I'm certain that compared to the competition in 89 the Z's braking performance was considered good at least. Antihero Putting AMS garbage, and $500 ebay wheels on a Z is like dressing a Victorias Secret model in a Walmart dress and Payless shoes. You're embarrassing yourself.
