Bought the set used, so this is all I know:

Greddy Grex slotted rotors, Rotora pads, and put in Amsoil DOT 3 brake fluid myself.

I was able to take 10 seconds off of my best lap time of 1:47.3 at the last event. Got 1:37.5 this time!

Congrats Rubicant. The Z looks lovely. Nice vid too. Good job taking it easy the first time and not trying to drive like a pro. 10 seconds is a huge improvement, I bet most of this is because you are now confident with the car and the track. Good luck!

EAS's VF supercharged 620 HP M3 was running 1:24's so 1:37.5 is good for having about half the power!

Thanks guys! There was another Z there, the guy's name is Sean and he just bought his Z last Wednesday. 2003 Silver with 120k miles on it. I know he's not on the forum but maybe the previous owner is?

Anyway, he was getting 1:32 and his tires weren't that great. So, I can definitely hit 1:30!

i have the same sides and rear diffuser and am also on 18's. only I'm running a 40 sidewall as opposed to your 35's.

i can't figure out how your sides sit so much higher than me when I'm only slightly lower. i recently cracked the right side skirt sadly.

Thanks!

Here's a pic from my recent track event:



Rain + no skills on wet surface (almost no skills period ) = off-roading
