You're comparing apples to oranges. The 300zx weighs an impressive: 3300-3500lbs (z32) Compare that with the FC which tips the scales at: 2625-3071lbs. You suddenly don't have an extra 229-875lbs to stop. Not to mention other things to consider (Place on the torque curve, power at the wheels, speed, etc). Automatically you'd have to start scrubbing speed alot sooner than you would with an FC, and that's just based on weight.
If you want to spend the money, you can get a 6-piston big brake kit for a little over 2g's. That's just for the front set though. That includes slotted/drilled rotors and the calipers. On top of that you have to figure out the rear as installing those will not only increase your weight but also throw off your braking balance.
Honeslty speaking however, the 4-pot brake system on the FC's are already quite impressive for stock-moderate power levels. But have you set your final goal with power? What are you attempting to do?
