Message The largest is the Z1 13" rotor kit which can be had as one piece or two piece Baer rotor. Next in size would be the 350Z track rotor kits (12.75" I think). You can buy the Stoptech Aero rotors with that which are two piece. That seems to be the option most choose. Continuing you have the 3000GT kits (12.5") and you can get two piece rotors for that setup. After that is the MATTZ garage rotors (12.2") that are two piece and can fit under stock wheels.

All of these are in the $650-$800 range.

I have the Hawk HPS pads and I can't complain too much but after reading all the great reviews on here I was expecting more. They seem to be sensitive to changes in braking. If I'm just driving around and braking lightly they're fine but if I get out on a nice twisty piece of road and start braking harder their bite is gone. If I stomp on them hard from speed after light braking the bite comes back until they get heated up. So yeah, not as good as I had hoped. Maybe it's the slotted rotors or something. I'm going to try the Axxis pads next, see what they bring to the table.
