2006 Big Brake Kit for g35 (WILWOOD)
Speaking of a factory Wilwood kit, I got mine from Todd @ TCE, have been very pleased with it. I'd suggest going with a factory one versus one that is "pieced together" without proper R&D and testing.
Wilwood is both a full BBK supplier and also a parts supplier. If you were to purchase a 'kit' by way of Summit racing and it happened to contain Wilwood brand calipers that alone doesn't make it a Wilwood kit.
In the G35/350Z world there are a number of aftermarket suppliers (including myself) who produce kits containing Wilwood components. That does not make them good or bad but it does not make them a true Wilwood kit. My position has been that if, as a supplier, you feel strongly enough about the product you manufacture you should have the ***** to put your own name to it as well and not rely on the name of a larger company to piggy-back off of for the sake of a sale.
*And yes I do my very best to distinguish those products I produce in this manner and always make it clear as to what the customer is actually buying.
The lack of this "manning up" often leads to negative comments from buyers and former owners who end up quite unhappy about something and either bad mouth Wilwood or call for support only to be told "we don't make that" and then end up arguing with the consumer who is certain his kit is a Wilwood kit- that's what the ebay company told me! You get the idea.
