the nismo Z does match the camaros 109 60-0. but, it does still weigh 500 less, and cost about 8k more. anyway, as for rust, i have drilled and sloted brakes, and they do not rust. they are Zinc coated.

Please don't put words in my mouth, Levi. I did not say the Brembos on the Camaro are inferior, but possibly cheaper, meaning to produce, as in a rotor compound with no additives, i.e. chromium, to inhibit rust. Of course they will still function just fine and are not inferior, although they will rust more easily.
Zinc coated? Galvanized rotors, huh?
And that lasts what...'bout a hundred miles, then they need recoated?
