Default New alliance 8/6 pot red bbk!!!!

So I just got a brand new Alliance 8/6 pot bbk after waiting a month for them. I thought they would look ok because the pics werent' that great when i bought them. But OMFG was I wrong. These are literally the best looking BBK i have ever seen in my life....I have seen endless, stoptech, rotora, brembo and these look even better IMO of course. There is not one imperfection on them. It must be the anodoized hats/calipers that does it because these are FLAWLESS. I can't even explain my excitement, these are so nice, they went way above and beyond my expectations for them Quality and precision definetly are a good start to explaining my initial impressions!!!

When I first opened the box the words that came to mind were gourgeous and beautiful. I really hate showing pics becaues they look so much nicer in real life but I guess these will do.

While they have passed the beauty test they still have one more thing to prove until I am sold on them, and thats performance. Which will be tested hopefully next Sunday after I get them installed

8 piston fully forged aluminum calipers, anodzied finish with laser engraved logo, aluminumn mounting brackets, 380mm/15 inch 2 piece floating rotors with color matched anodized hats with Stainless Steel Lines

6 piston fully forged aluminum calipers, anodzied finish with laser engraved logo, aluminumn mounting brackets, 356mm/14 inch 2 piece floating rotors with color matched anodized hats with Stainless Steel Lines

PS: Definetly will take better pics when they are installed, these are just to give you an idea







And for those of you that don't know what my car looks like, this is what these beauties are going on:









Now I have to Thank Mike@Blackline for some of the best communication and service around. 1 month before I got my brakes he gave me a date of when they should be built by....and as most of you know, these dates are almost never met. Well, not in this case. Mike gave me updates very very often by texting late at night/pm/email and I apprecaite him very much for doing that. And i got my brakes by the deadline he told me 1 month before hand so great job on that Mike Blackline is looking for 2 more of these kits to give half-sponsorships too so if you are interested jsut hit them up. Great product and service and an amazing price

After I go canyoning this weekend with a couple other Z's I'll write up my driving impressions and they can post up theirs too because i'm goign to let them drive my car as well

Prices vary depending on what setup you want but for brand new prices, these are amazing(imo of course)!!! Smallest avaliable for the 350z is a 6/6 with 356 rotors I believe but contact Mike@Blackline to be sure. https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2008-n...or-extras.html Only problem is he is banned right now lol for not keeping up with vendor fees but he will be back up in a couple days max. I have his cell so if you guys are impatient, you can pm me and I can give you his number(i'll ask him if that's ok first of course).

And I'm glad you guys like em!!! These are so nice in real life, it makes me speechless....And my friend who has a bmw e46 also got these but in a 6/4 so I'll be doing a nice photoshoot with him prettty soon. I've been waiiting for these to come in to be able to pull off some rolling shots!!! I can't wait for that, kinda wish i had my rig built now though and i wasn't so lazy

To tell you guys the truth, I don't want to mount them at the same time....it would crush me to think of getting these even a little dirty. Kinda want to jstu mount them on every wall in my room

interesting rotor hat design. cant say its the best, but i guess we'll see.

cant say i know anything about the company, but whats the pad availability like? i know your excited about a bbk, but dont be swayed since your kit was a sponsor deal

canyon running isnt the best method to test these, go to the track and see how they hold up. but then again 95% of the bbk purchases are just for looks anyways.

And I know a canyon run isn't a good measure on how well a bbk performs but it's better than nothing. I did fade everytime I went after 15 min of non-stop thrashing so that'll give me some type of hint of how these perform. Because nobody is goign to want to wait till I track the car in May to hear how these work. I'll give initial impressions in the canyons to give some type of review and then do a follow up come May when I go to the track
