Stoptech are fine but don't get drilled. You are risking the rotors cracking on the track. Drilled is only for looks at this point as modern pads don't outgass.

Get slotted or blanks, I think slotted are supposed to have a little more bite but the centric blanks are probably a little cheeper.

Ok, i will be running the stoptech slotted rotors on the 350z nismo's brembos (front and back), with goodridge stainless steel braided lines, carbotech xp12's front and back (will have to re-bed them with the new rotors), and torque RB700 brake fluid

I'll have a pro mod shop do it so I don't mess up.. granted we have speed bleeders..

If all that doesn't work, I quit... missed 2 track days now already...behind on my season

XP12 will be pretty aggressive for the rear, make your abs kick in overtime. But your setup should work regardless.

ShahulX, did you sort it out eventually? I have the same problem: brake pedal getting soft after a few laps/sessions at the track but then getting back to normal even already when driving back home on the same day!
