I bought a set of front 300zx rotors.  Then I got shipped the fronts AND the rears.
What should I do with the rear rotors?

It actually hurts your braking ability when you upgrade one end of the car's brakes w/o upgrading the other...so install them, too.
Go to http://www.turnfast.com/tech_brakes/...alancing.lasso for info on balancing brakes

It shouldnt hurt them to much. It sucks with my big 13.1" brake kit up front with stock brakes in back. I have my 300ZX calipers and brembo rotors waiting to be installed in the rear but since its a big project if I want to keep my EBrake I havent installed them. My car locks up reeeeal easily since my fronts are so powerfull and the rears do shit. Put on the front 300Z brakes it shouldnt kill your braking, you just have to brake a little different, but you will still stop faster.

West, why is it a big project if you want to keep your ebrake?  Also, what are the disadvantages of losing the ebrake? (keeping in mind I am in the flattest spot in Florida)  Do you need the ebrake for the tracks?
I'm a little lost here <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
