Based on research I did a little while ago, the G35 coupe and G35 sedan (pre-2007) and the 350z all use the same BBK part number. Basically, front kits should fit on any and rear kits should fit on any.

I thought I read that certain stoptech kits would only work on 2003-2006 350z that came with the brembo's from the factory however, I cannot confirm. Once you know which brand, probably best to talk to that company to verify or do a test fit.

the reason on the ST kit # changins is slightly different piston sizing for brake biasing purposes.

what year G35?

it will fit fine but the braking bias won't be the same i assume and since you track your car you might want to reconsider

Dik is right, but you can compensate on the bias with different front and rear brake pads.

For proper control of the brake bias, I suggest a brake proportioning valve. You can dial in the brake bias. Or the best thing to do is send your brake setup to the manufacturer and they will adjust it for your specific vehicle. My stoptech kit had a specific brake bias designed for my 07' because I only had the front kit without a brembo kit in the rear.
