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.

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.

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

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

those things look delicious.

how much are they?

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

Dayhummm. Let me know how it goes :)

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

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

can't speak for the performance of them but damn they sure do look good...

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.


sure, will take pics tomorrow

These are directional rotors, I'll take pics tomorrow

hahaha, they do look nice. will be installed this weekend.

PM Mike@Blackline, He'll let you know. I bought these from him.

Pmed him. If these are at a good price I will get them.

Another part for my most exclusive belgian 370Z project :roflpuke2:

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...

I didn't even check which ones I got, probably the same.....

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

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! :excited:

They come in blue, red, yellow and black. They will be offering other colours in powdercoat soon.

Ran into a problem with bad batch of tires...wth?

So it's hanging out on the lift for now.

Blue! :excited: Any pics? Black might also be a nice one?

Sucks about the tires man lol. Wow. Thats... unusual. :ugh2:

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.

Yeah it sucks that JB-370z wheels plus brakes did not work out, just saw the wheels last night and they look great but I see why they did not work.

soooo when will you be placing your order :tup: seriously though, there is another sale coming up soon.

but yes the color offerings should be finalized in the next few weeks in terms of what they will be offering. already sold to the market are: anodized red, anodized blue (pictured above), anodized gold, anodized black, and powdercoated red. anodized silver w/ black logo is under consideration right now, and yellow powdercoated calipers with black logos is most likely the other PC color that will be offered.

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.

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. :happydance:

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

Pics or ban

Nogood, beautiful stuff man! Looks fantastic. Thank you for sharing. :tup:. Any pics on the G? :excited:

nice brakes!

Hey Mike, any chance they will be offering custom colors?? I am looking for a dark burgundy.

:worthless:
