I look forward to seeing how your AP rotors and pads hold up in the long run. The one thing I don't understand is how the OEM brakes on my 1987 BMW 325is running cheap $15 rotors and anything from Hawk DTC60 to PFC01 pads with no modifications other than removing the OEM heat shields hold up just fine to racing conditions and the BRZ is unable to do the same. The difference in weight is only on the order of 200 lbs. Are you sure that you aren't just going with too aggressive of a pad? Confidence is definitely more important than losing a couple feet of stopping distance in a braking zone.
