hey guys,
i know there are a few other threads on the same subject, but i wanted to see if theres any updates opinions and what not.

i want to get new brakes for my fx35,

i liek the look of the brembo ones, but i don't think they fit on my car....and thats the only brand a really know of.
basically i want big rotors with either black or red calipers, cuz that loks sick.
i dont know the performance diffeence between slotted/drilled etc. so i dont really know what my opinion on that is yet.

so what do you say, wanna help me out?

thanks dudes

DiscItalia Drilled (skip the slotted ones, they produce a whirring sound)
+ DiscItalia Ceramic pads (get metallic compound ones, like OEM pads, for grabbier feel )

I 've had those for a year now and absolutely love 'em. They look good and perform great!

on the link how would someone do option 7?

Yes, I would go with the Rotora's. But they all will fit the oem 20's. Look here for the Japan brembro's http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?lp=ja_en&url=http%3A%2F%2Fonix-kmg.co.jp%2Finfiniti%2Findex3

I would get the AP Racing brakes from stillen, they look great and perform great.

For a big upgrade at an affordable price, Brake Pros offers world renown AP Racing 4-piston calipers running on 1-piece and/or 2-piece rotors. Each kit is designed to work with the original equipment master cylinder, ABS and traction control systems. Specially-designed rotors are cross-drilled and slotted, the optimum for high-performance street, autocross and occasional track day use. The curved vane construction provides for maximum cooling when pushing hard. 2-piece kits come with aluminum alloy hats for better thermal management and maximum weight reduction.

DOT-compliant and TÜV-approved stainless steel lines are included to top off the upgrade and provide a huge improvement in pedal feel and stiffness. Brackets and hardware are made from aerospace-grade materials and high-strength fasteners. All AP Racing kits are complete with no other parts required. Install, bleed and go!

Or you can look around for some FX50s brakes

I might sound like an idiot by asking this but I'm really thinking about getting a big break kit for my FX35. I'm thinking of looking at Rotora BBK so my question is what's the difference between the 4 pistons or 6 piston kit. Another question is since my FX is AWD is the break kit required for front and back?. I like Brembo but that's real expensive.

Pm HumbertoCali... he has the Rotora BBK 6 piston fronts and 4 piston rears with 14"(?) rotors. He is also AWD. I can attest, these things stop EXTREMELY fast.

No need to front and back...but it looks sick with front and back installed:

How about KSport? they have BBK to FX35
