they are definitely amazing looking (in my opinion the best looking BBK on the Z/G market), but they have the performance to back it up!

From G35 driver, one of Alliance's sponsored rides:
"I will say that even with still having the stock rear brakes I can feel a major difference with these. It seems like it takes very little effort to stop the car now and I bet I can lock these up without even trying. They just grab that good."
He has since installed the full 8 front 6 piston rear setup, and has all good things to say

From a 350 with the 15/14 8/6 setup, just a portion of his review:
"Performance: They work excellant, stopping on the Dime, not a sound or squeak, no brake dust (what?) yeah....no brake dust. I wipe my wheels and nothing.

Off the shelf: Would I buy them...for the price, quality and choice of Hats, color, calipers...HELL YEAH! in a heartbeat. The price is set too low. Honestly, you need to ask for more."

Great reviews!

Do you happen to know how easy or difficult it is to swap the pads on these?

changing pads is quite easy, two bolts, thats it! not sure what other brands can be used in terms of pads, ill have to ask Alliance. but changing pads is definitely easier than stock pads, or at least it seemed that way when i changed my front pads

The kit looks good. I'd go with shunya on this and go Endless. IMHO though, I wouldn't go with a full BBK unless you are doing some serious HP upgrades.
