Slotted will help, but not as much as other options. by the time you pay to get stock rotors slotted, you might as well have gotten z32 rotors re drilled for 4 lug. Pick up some reman'ed z32 calipers from the parts store and you're good to go. Then you can work on the little stuff like a bigger master and baces and lines and all that jazz. when you really sit down and look at the cost of just upgrading versus tweaking with the stock stuff you'll quickly see the advantage to just doing the swap...
but that's just my 2 cents...
Um no they wont. Correct pads, SS lines, fluid and air ducts and you will be just fine. There are plenty of SCCA 240's running stock calipers. As long as you can keep them cool you will be fine. Unless you make over 300hp and are constantly slowing from 130mph+ on the straights, then you might want to look into something bigger.
I've heard alot of shitty things about re-man'd calipers as well. Like them only having replaced one piston while the other three are in horrible shape and seals not properly intalled. I would stay away from them and just get a used set and rebuild them yourself.
Who the hell slots stock rotors? Your just asking for them to crack. Slotted rotors are generally usless on a street car but they atleast look cool and make people think your fast.
Have you ever done any of that? Z32 brakes tend to lock up and alot of people have trouble getting the correct master cylinder to make everything work as well as it should. And getting the e-brake to work is a pain in the ass unless you pull everything off a Z yourself.
I think you need to stop reiterating things you've read on internet forums and do some real research.
