i think they look pretty damn good. most ppl agree a BBK wont really make ur car stop any quicker. but it will reduce fade and is better for the track. but other than that they look real nice behind a nice set of aftermarket wheels. IMHO anything is nicer than the stock caliper. if you can get it, go for it. i kind of actually like the color, its different and i dont see whats so 'fugly' about it.

 

i prolly wouldnt put them on

edit: forget the prolly. i wouldnt put them on

and i disagree...andrew is the biggest fast intentions cheerleader

 

I agree that these are the best bang-for-your-buck BBK setup. 6-pot front and 4-pot rear for less than $3K is a steal. I would have gone with these based upon Scott's detailed review but I didn't care for the shape of the calipers. Powdercoating is no big deal. My Rotora BBK is at the powdercoater now. Hit up Scott at VRT or Danny at Integrity Auto for the Megan Racing BBK.

 

One thing that you have to realise is brakes have to meet a certain standard before they can even be sold to the public...they have to meet all types of regulations and what not. Megan racing might not make the best test pipes or headers in the world, but if those brake its not your life on the line...its a matter of just replacing them. With brakes if they fail and you get injured, its their a$$! So im sure alot of work went into them even though they are cheaper. Another reason they are cheap is because its a "smaller" company trying to become bigger and hopefully someday carry a name and reputation like lets say HKS, greddy, or even stillen. In another 5 years when they become bigger im sure their parts will be more expenive as well.

I bet greddy and HKS didnt just walk into the market one day and make millions and make perfect products...everyone has to start somewhere.

^ i agree with what u r saying but that doesnt mean they have to make their bbk ugly...u can start somewehre but still make ur product look good.

 

i'm not hating on them b/c of how well they do or do not perform. theyre just fugly!

btw, fast intentions is relatively new, arent they? theyre shiet aint cheap! but it's good shiet

 

I saw these BBK on the 350Z that VRT tested...It looks good in person...The blue does stand out but the 350Z was the dark blue so it worked...Those pictures don't do the BBK justice...

 

I don't like the ridges that extend on either side of the pistons.

 

Fast Intentions isnt that new. Theyve been around for 5 or 6 years I think. Theyve been doing other work for a while before they entered the G/Z scene. Youre right though, its not the cheapest stuff but its good stuff!

 

too cheap

 

5 or 6 years? that's pretty damn new

not knocking them...just saying that theyre new...

 

i dunno whenever i hear the word megan racing i think of ebay and rice rockets. But that's just me.. im sure they perform well.. but ............ hmm

 

That BBK looks like it needs a redesign. If it had a flaw it is how it looks!! Made for a 80's car!!

I also dont like that Megan Racing word. Couldnt they just put MEGAN and no racing behind it and no red on the G? If Megan made a better lookin BBK then I'd say its the best bang for ur buck regardless if it performs well!!

I'd probably rock it if it was black.. and painted over the Megan Racing.
