Default 06 350Z's let us talk brake pads.

So I searched and found nothing for the 06 options for brake pads. Specifically the Stoptechs. I found them on mynismo.com the stage 1 kit really has my attention. Now the dealership wants $260 for the fronts alone. So with this kit going for $260 and it's a nice upgrade what do you all think? Worth it? Or should I step it up to the stage 2 kit? Or are the OE better?

Also this will be for a street car. With 1/4 mile track driving to include 120 mph runs down the tracks in HPDE, and also lots of street driving.

If I am going to "upgrade" brakes, I want new rotors. The other stuff is frivolous. But that's just me.

I've been happy with my Project Mu B-Force pads on 2006 non-brembo brakes. Street and Track - used on Powerslot rotors.

nothing wrong with oe rotors.

carbotech makes some nice pads. you can get a set of bobcats for the street then swap in the xp12/10's when you do a de. it will save you from buying 2 sets of rotors.
