hi,

my name is benny and the 350z i have is going to be on the track. this is a 03 none track edition.

so anyway, it will have to be able to spend a day at a track the has a half mile front straight...

right now it has 18/40/245 front and 18/40/275 kdw g-force t/a so i have room for larger brakes although would like to have the most effective package weither or not that includes larger rotors.

Stoptech is always a good choice.

You need a budget before you start! Otherwise, it's a money pit! :P

That more than anything will decide on the "best" setup for your application.

A simple fluid upgrade with dedicated track pads will get you a long way. Braided lines are nice too.

If you need more endurance than that, a BBK will do the trick.

What does track mean? HPDE? SCCA licensed solo racing? One of those unsanctioned tracks like they have in Texas?

Drive several times. Improve your skills. Then talk with other racers about brakes.

a NASA HPDE, but also open track days. so we need brakes that can handle this kind of stuff.


the two wheel stoptech BBK looks about right, but should we just add lines and matching pads to the rear on the stock calipers and rotors?

With the KDW tires a front only kit and stock sized rear will be more than adequate for your needs. My boss (J_Ritt on here) used a 332 front only kit with Hawk DTC-70 pads and stock rear brakes with Axxis Ultimate pads on his Z with Toyo RA-1s and had no issues with fade, pad deposition or any other problems and was able to keep up with if not out-lap some of the Z06 Vettes at the last track day we attended.
