The finish on those is so beautiful it's almost a shame you'll actually have to put them on the car.

I got the G in 2007 and another G owner got one at the same time. He installed 12 piston calipers and there was no issue with the ABS and he had bigger rims too. Did Nissan change the ABS system for the 370z, like more sensitive??

Thanks for the suggestion, red seems like what I need. I won't be tracking and it does get cold here in the fall time.

HMMMM... I have the EBC Blues on the car now.... Maybe that is what is causing part of the problem... Thanks for the post Chris!!! Wrong pads for the needed application could be the reason for my Ice Mode...

they are.
and about the pads i dont think their EBC or at least they've never told us they are (they're not branded if so), Ive just always assumed they were in house Alliance pads

Mike I'm bumping a thread for you. You will know when you see it lol

XwChriswX · 04-16-2010, 10:06 PM

OMG Those are pure sex. I Love that shade of red! I bet they are going to look Awesome on your G, it's black too right? Couldn't remember...

I wonder if they make a blue kit with the same paint on it, if so, I'll be all over those!

1st Ever Powdercoated Alliance BBK - 8P/6P 15"/14" - Vibrant Red - New, FREE SHIPPING

New 370Z BBK Option

The rear tires were good, it was just the fronts. Until a new set comes in. That's when I can get the BBK's installed. The OEM's and Winter rims don't clear the BBK's.

nogoodname · 04-19-2010, 06:20 PM

Just stopped by the shop and the BBK's look great. The installer said there were no problems with the install. Everything is good

My Vossen rims cleared the BBK's nicely. Around 1cm in front and around 5mm in rear...
Super close but it looks sick this way!!

The G will be back home soon.

Mike@Blackline · 04-19-2010, 06:46 PM

awesome i know the wheel clearance was an issue we were concerned with, super excited to see pics of the installed brakes, plus all the other stuff youre throwing on there.

So happy it fits. The front was not a concern. When I saw the rear rotor hats, I was sure it's going to fit.

With the clearance being small, it actually looks great! Really makes the BBK look big.
