Well I talked to Racing Brakes and got a group deal going for our sports brakes rotors.
Here is the link to the Group buy. They want you to sign up to their forum but its not complicated.
Light weight two piece rotors for G37/370Z - RacingBrake Forums

If you have upgraded your brakes to the akebonos from the 370z/G37 then these will work.
We received inquiry for a group buy so this thread is created for that purpose.

Front two piece:
Two-piece rotor (Open Slot) - 370Z (Sport) FRONT 2009
Rear two piece: Two-piece rotor (Open Slot) - 370Z (Sport) REAR 09-11

If you like we can also add our ET500 (best for aggressive street driving) and brake line as a package to enhance the overall performance improvement.

If we have 5 people signed up we can offer a 20% discount, 10 people will be 25%. For those order both front and rear package (rotor+pad+line) will also receive free shipping.

1.) Fezzik -- Front 2pc + rear 2pc + ET500 brake pads, and SS Brake lines.

From Racing Brakes:
David,

The 20% or 25% discount applies to the total purchase. Tomorrow we will have front and rear packages on our website that would include the rotors, ET500 brake pads, and brake lines with a savings of 5% over purchasing them separately. The additional discounts would apply to the package purchase also. In addition, if both front and rear packages are purchased you will receive free shipping.

I hope this clears up some of the questions.

"Just to clarify this GB is for Infiniti G37S and 370ZS which has 355x32 front and 350x23 rear rotors.

Our rotors are made of high carbon iron with alloys, and heat treated. Built with patented center mount design true convergent curve (directional) vanes for ultimate and lasting performance both on track and street.

RB is the only brake company built rear light weight two piece with iron sleeve insert retaining the use of emergency brakes. Performance and safety minded brake company that you can trust."

"We just checked our inventory and found out the on hand stock can only fill 4 orders (front and rear)

So our package will be standardized to:

1 pair of front & rear two piece rotors
1 set each of front and rear brake pad (ET500)
1 kit of stainless steel brake line for all four corners

The GB number is now reduced to 4 car sets only on first come first serve basis. All order receive free shipping within 48 states with $65 credit deduct for elsewhere."

"This 4 order GB will get 20% discount off retail, but since we can sell as a standard package (instead of options) which saves us some troubles in managing it so we offer free shipping so the final discount would still be ~25%."

$2,160.39 -20%= $1728.31 + free shipping

Brake Package G37S (Akebono) 09-11
This brake package is for 2009 - 2011 Infiniti G37S and includes:

1 set of Front Two-piece rotors (Open Slot) (2133)
1 set of Rear Two-piece rotors (Open Slot) (2314)
1 set of Front ET500 brake pads (PD1346-35)
1 set of Rear ET500 brake pads (PD1347-35)
1 Car Set of Stainless Steel Brake Lines


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This RB Brake upgrade package is a direct OE replacement. Unlike other manufacturers, modification to the pads or rotors is not necessary. Combined with our Aggressive Street ET500 brake pads, this kit delivers brake performance for aggressive street driving and an occassional light HPDE event.


Both front and rear rotors are upgraded from OE straight vane to curved vanes for better cooling. Curved vanes pump more air and will keep your rotors cooler than straight vanes and in turn will last longer. The rotors are also protected by our EDP coating, on the hats and between the cooling vanes, which resists rusts and corrosion.

You're going to want ET700 pads, or 800's if you can't find then, not the 500's. Trust me on this.

They grouped the deal and it already has 5 percent off. and then the free shipping makes it a total of 30 percent of the retail price with shipping.

So instead of 2400 + 50-100 in shipping its now 1700 + free shipping

You're driving a boosted G35, so those pads are going to need to stop a heavy vehicle with a good amount of power behind it...the ET700's can handle a higher heat range and will wear a longer the 500's will. They dust a little more, but I'd say it's a fair trade.

I was considering stepping up to the 800's, one reason is I've heard that the initial bite is better than the 700's, along with pedal feel - and the other reason is it looks like RB is discontinuing them. :gotme

Well i talked to Warren at Racing brakes and he states with the light autocrossing and my driving style the et500 will be best. Esp in colder temps of chicago since this car is my daily driver. HE straight up told me to stick with the 500 but i can get the 800 if i want to.

He sells both pads, I've driven with both pads. Image And in temps similar to those in Chicago when I was in central Illinois and Indiana. Both the 500 and 700 are rated for ambient temps and up, if they weren't they wouldn't be listed as a street pad.

But that's my personal opinion and experience with no monetary interest at stake. Here's a review from someone right on RB's forums.
