Saturday Mod Pics
I finally had a nice day to complete a couple new mods for the Z with help from my brother JJ86.
First, upgrading the stock rotors to the Baer Eradispeed rotors. Thanks to forum member C5 Z16 for giving me a great deal on these.

On normal slow, or moderate, street driving it may not make a significant difference on rotor temps, depending on the driving habits, etc, but any "performance" type activity wherein the brakes are being used harder, then yes it will make a difference as the air flow on the Baer rotors is designed for maximum cooling when the airflow is directed in the manner they are designed for. Baer was using DBA for all their rotor blanks on their Eradispeed series. Not sure if they still are. It is DBA that designed the internal "Kangaroo Paw" design of the cooling passages in these rotors.
