Default BBK Suggestions

I'm considering getting a set of BBK, either VTTR, Ezxess or D1Spec. Wonder any Z owners used any these before. Appreciate your feedback.

Never heard of any of those that you listed

Most of us either upgrade to the track Brembo's, Akebono's from the 370z, StopTech's, Wilwoods, and even a few people rock Greddy's or Endless

+1 to a set of OEM Brembo's. They're lightweight, a direct bolt-on (only the rear dust shields need trimming), countless pad and rotor choices, cheap/easy to rebuild, and almost any wheel will fit. Of course, they also perform well, and work without changing the OEM master cylinder.

Based on what you listed, I suggest either the OEM Brembo, 370Z Akebono, Willwood, or StopTech. Whatever you get, make sure you invest in pads with great initial bite. I have Akebonos on both my 350Z and 370Z, but the Z33 has Hawk pads. The difference is very noticeable.

I upgraded using a local shop (VSR Motorsports) that made a kit for the 6 piston brembos that come on 911 GT3 cup cars. Great deal!
