I had 6 piston Alcons on my B6 S4 with the rear Alcon rotors as well, with XP8 pads all around. The best mod for the money as they make the fat-assed S4 really stop and I could NOT get them to fade a single bit, and I punished them greatly. Too bad the 4.2L motors in the B6 are a ticking time-chain tensioner and chain-guide time bomb waiting to go off to fix for 5K. Oh well, I'm much happier with the Nismo anyway. Who sells the Alcons for the 370Z? Or just get the XP8 for my stock calipers? The Alcon calipers were a 1 piece cast design, very rigid.
