This is for my wife's G.. Ever since she had the car she has always had to deal with some kind of brake warping issue.

Changed the rotors at least 3 different times and they warp right away after a few thousand miles.

She is very easy on the car too, not a heavy braker.

She has a mean shimmy now from the front and I'm definite it's the rotors since the car runs smooth at speed, only happens when braking.

What rotors should I run in the front that have the best reviews from members on this board?

THANKS

I drive my 04 G35x very hard, and have had no issues at all with the front brakes. There are aftermarket options though...

Well I can't imagine that I am the only person who has warping problems on the X.

Not sure when I asked you Poly if you had problems with your car and warping, that doesn't really solve my problem now does it.

Obviously there are aftermarket parts, but when there are 30 different brands of rotors to choose from that doesn't make it easy.

Maybe next time instead of getting your post count up, perhaps you could answer the question that was being asked.

wooow. Attitude? get the sand cleaned out of your reproductive cavities and go suck a railroad spike. Damn dude. Is that why I'm the only one who responded? because people recognize you're not a nice guy? Most hawk and akebono pads from tirerack are very good. You can get replacement rotors from stillen or brembo ones from tirerack as well and they hold up twice as long as the factory brakes. You can also get your choice of high quality rotors and then get Nismo brake pads for the 03-04 350Z (non brembo) if you want to use factory brand options. They are all fairly affordable, but some really high end ones, including the nismo, will squeak a little because they are performance based.
