Alliance Brakes. Anyone using?
I cannot comment on how the brakes perform, yet. But that being said, the customer service aspect in dealing with Mike should be the standard for other vendors on this forum. He has answered all of my questions in a very timely manner, and even gave me more information than I was looking for. I have ordered my kit and cannot wait to get it on my car! Customer Service is #1!!

whats the pad selection like?
who makes pads for these, make and model (i.e. ferodo ds2500).
are track pads available?
are the pads an existing pad shape or a brand new design (stoptechs are an existing porsche pad shape, giving excellent pad selection)
how much are replacement parts (ballpark) such as rotors, hats, hat bolts, etc

he has a g35, right now alliance is developing their 370/g37 kits, so none of them have one yet. but they will soon!
alright guys, ill give these a shot. I feel like if i answered these individually there would be a lot of redundant answers that are repeated:

Alliance has two in-house pad selections, their standard and racing compound. I have the specs on these if you PM me.
That being said, yes racing compounds are available, through in house pads and through other companies.
Compatiable pads for their 6 piston calipers are:
Ferodo FRP216
Endless EP915
Pagid Racing 1361
Hawk HB 110
AP Racing CP3215D50
Compatiable pads for their 8 piston calipers are:
Ferodo FRP3077
Endless EP954 (99% sure)
AP Racing CP5070D51
The replacement parts are going to almost a no-profit, at cost item for you Alliance customers who have purchased in the past. I wish I had some numbers for you guys, but their replacement parts are going to be much cheaper than buying replacement parts for other companies' products.
Hopefully thats enough good info to make you guys happy
keep the questions rolling!

and in regards to that pad selection, remember that each one of those pad shapes/sizes listed has A LOT of different compounds available.
A four piston will be available pretty soon here hopefully now that the 370Z/G37 development and production is wrapping up. 6 piston front, 4 piston rear setups will be available, helping save money and weight while still meeting the demands of the street and track. i'll post up with updates as they come
sorry i havent posted the thread yet, been taking the holiday season seriously for once, not working too much 
no, the 4 pot wont be available in time unfortunately for this sale. if you still want to consider a 6/6 rev2red, let me know and we can work something out

These brakes are really good looking, but I just have yet to see any real track tests done. The stint that AH did hardly tells me anything about these brakes. Im sure these brakes are good for street use. Things like caliper stiffness, pad drag, and extreme temperatures are almost never really seen or matter on the street.
Side by side independent testing between other competitor products like stoptech/endless/rotora/AP/etc with these in terms of lap time, stop time, temperature, and overall feel would certainly help everyone make a decisive choice.
