Default Review on Alliance 8/6 piston BBK :)

I would like to start off by giving BIG props to Mike@blackline for hooking me up with these BBK. All I can say is, "WOW!!!!!!!" These bbk are not only sick to look at but the stopping power is incredible. I'm currently making over 500whp and these puppies can definitely stop on a dime. Also, the best part is there's NO squeals and no heavy brake dust on any of my deep disk rims.

I'm currently running 19x9.5" VOLKS with +25 offsets up front and I have no clearance issues what so ever with the 15" rotors. The back also has plenty of room clearing the 14" rotors.

Arite, enough of me yapping around and more pix. Enjoy and feel free to check out Mike's specials on these BBK ( https://my350z.com/forum/brakes/4395...-and-more.html).

By the way, do you think I will have any clearance issue if I have 18" wheels?

Yeah I was wondering the same thing. It looks like there's still some room for 19 so might be okay for 18.

Thanks guys for the comments.

As for the clearance, U can pm Mike@blackline (that's his screen name) or post your offsets and i might be able to tell u if it will fit. But chances are all 19" will clear the 15" rotors without any issues unless ure going for some crazy offsets like +0.

The price is up to Mike so please contact him for the deals bc he has different options to suit your bbk needs.

These BBK are like half the price of your typical big brake kits so I would definitely look into these for those that don't want to pay an arm n leg.

I want to see these brakes get track tested... the only "reviews" ive ever seen of these brakes are just on daily driving or "spirited driving"

They look nice though

Agreed. This seemed more like an announcement than a review.

A.H. has reviewed them on the track and briefed me on their performance, beating them so hard that his car went into limp mode without any fade from the brakes. only reason he didnt post a thread per everyone's request is because he didnt have any pics or videos. ill see if i can get him to chime in
