Pics | Alliance Big Brake Kit
 
Just got the delivery of these BBK's. The boxes were hella beat up by FedEx but all the parts were in good shape. So that's good! Anyways, the calipers are super light weight...lol... was surprised by that. This kit came with the calipers, rotors, SS lines, pads and mounting pieces. It's ready to go. :tup:

These will be installed at the same time with some other parts, maybe next week.

Mike at Blackline Motorsports was great to deal with :)

Front: 15" rotors and 8 piston calipers
Rear: 14" rotors and 6 piston calipers

Nice! I think that's the same kit that Bullitt's running. It caused his ABS to go into icing mode though. Hope it doesn't do that with yours.

It's the same, I hope not too. :icon14:

Very Nice looking, wish there were 3 bolts instead of 2.

Ben we arent sure what caused the ABS issue. Like we discussed during the test there are alot of variables we needed to sort through before we make a judgement.

Yes, my car has an "ice mode" issue... We are unsure if it is the weight of the wheels, my braking style, my suspensions setup, the pads I am using, and or many other items that could be helping to contribute to the problem. I changed road surfaces and the car was just fine... also, I had just switched the rotors the night before without doing an extensive bedding process and tried to quickly due one in 5 mins. So there are way too many variables to make any kind of judgments on what my car is doing.

nogood Enjoy your BBK :tup: you will love it!

Yeah you're right. I should have said that it may have caused the icing issue. Sorry, my bad.

nogoodname 04-14-2010 04:37 PM

Thanks for letting me know about it.

I'll post updates on what happens.

Don't use the EBC Blue pads on the street if that is what they came with. They are far too aggressive and not designed to work in cooler temperatures. I would go with EBC Red, Mintex Red, Mintex Extreme or equivalent.

semtex 04-14-2010 04:59 PM

EBC Yellow is pretty good too. I used it on my 350 with a Stoptech BBK.

ChrisSlicks 04-14-2010 05:10 PM

Yes, if you do a mixture of street and track then the EBC Yellow is a good choice as well.

Vegitto-kun 04-14-2010 05:17 PM

those things look delicious.

how much are they?

pipni 04-14-2010 06:15 PM

Hi, can you put here another photos as SS lines, pads and mounting pieces... Thanks.

ATL_Red_G35 04-14-2010 06:16 PM

Dayhummm. Let me know how it goes :)

B1nks 04-14-2010 06:45 PM

Could you take some pics of the rotor veins to show whether they're directional or not.

CBRich 04-14-2010 07:40 PM

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