Pattern was what I was getting at. Perfect.

Can you shoot me a price for a kit that meets the following.

2 Piece Cross drilled & slotted front.
1 Piece Rear cross drilled & slotted (same pattern)
Infiniti Calipers
Don't need brake lines
Hawk HPS pads

Shipped to V1Y9X5 (Canada)

Coz, I heard that slotted rotors cannot be machined. Is that true do you know?

P.S. Thanks for your help with getting me those plenum gaskets! They came super quick.

Default CZP Akebono kit still going strong.

Hello Coz and CZP crew,

This is an update of your product.

I had the CZP Akebono brake kit installed with 29,000 miles.

I am at 45,200 miles without any brake problems.

These brakes stop on a dime; even during the recent heavy rains.

I am very happy with the service from CZP and the quality of your kit.

I highly recommend your kit to other Z enthusiasts.

Thank you again,
Lboy06.

This is a great kit, it's hard to beat the quality for the price. I've had them on for almost a year now and ran numerous laps on the Nurburgring with zero brake fade. I opted for Stoptech rotors, ss lines, and Hawk pads.

I bought this package last year, and really felt the difference.
