Ray , i started a thread here for you , hope you don't mind.
I saw you have installed your BBK...

I had these lying around for a while,but my collegue who sold me these sometimes thinks that just everything from the FX and the 350Z is the same.
So we needed to arrange another set specially for the FX.

Got: Front 380mm (15 inch ) with 6 Pot casted rotors
Rear 355 ( 14 inch ) with 4 Pot casted rotors

Steel brakelines...the whole deal...!! Check out their website for more info: http://www.jbt.com.tw/

They even got chrome calipers....!! Wich i didn't dare taking due to the bad weather here,but like the grey onces as well View attachment 156362

Pics on the car following soon.....can't find them on my computer right now View attachment 156363

are bremos or rotora more then these?
 
A little less than Rotoras list price, same manufacturer of the calipers. Hats looks close to the same but the slotted Rotora rotors look different if I remember correctly.

Pics

Here are some pics of the BBK kit. I've chosen the Grey calipers as i didn't want them to stick out to much and blend in more. I do love the bright colors don't get me wrong,but sometimes when a car has a lot going on on the outside i find it a bit "Overkill" and also it depands on the color of the car wich caliper color you should take.

Here you go:
 
Bump for Ray!

Can you give us a quick update on performance to date. Are you liking them? Stopping distances? Feel? Fade? Anything you can. I'm looking for a BBK now.

Thx man!

Honestly must say i haven't driven it hard say on a track or such. But did drive it on the german highway and around here as well and had to stop hard several times as well and i'm still really satisfied with them :tup:

No fading no trembling....or such.

Till now i'd still advise them to you...!!

will they fit a 20" wheel?

In diameter yes....in width it depends on the wheel of course. Haven't tried the OEM wheels on them yet.

But there is enough clearance in diameter. Pitty though as i wanted the 16" in the front with the 8 Pot calipers but they were quit more expensive, but would fill up my wheel to the max :tongue:

Haha yeah i like them a lot as well, especially with 22's those OEM brakes just look too little. But there is always something more extreme. I've seen brakes on a show ( can't remember the name ) wich are soooooo sick. The centers are fully CNC'd and are a piece of art itself....crazy....but too expensive. It was a japanese firm or such. Forgot about the exact price but believe me if i blocked that out of my head already then it wasn't even something to think about :eek:

Thanks for the feedback Ray. Glad they are working out well for you.

What other options would you recommend for a BBK if not this one?
