No, it is purely personal preference not to touch anything made in China with 6 foot pole. Yes, a lot of stock parts in G are probably sourced in China, but I will not willingly fork out $1000+ on Chinese-made upgrade, especially when it concerns my safety and replaces high quality part from reputable manufacturer(hell, one of the best in the world!)
And what kind of research have you done-you have 2nd kit in the country? Are you sure this kit is up to the task? Did you beat it on the track to ensure its "performance"? Did somebody beat it on the track EVER? Does it have any quality certifications?
Are you gonna take your girl/wife/kids out this car? Hmmm....

obender dont worry about the OP's **** riders.
these brakes are junk just like the alliance branded ones. There are a lot of people with quality issues on my350z.com. From aesthetics of the FADING finishes to people having issues with piston seals. The piston seals are failing even though these brakes are not getting tracked...just daily driven.
Just another fly by night, no R and D company that managed to find a Chinese supplier willing to put a logo on their product.
I am all for new companies but lets get some RD going and not just labeling.
Whats sad is you could have gotten a quality kit for less.
hows your brake pad selection?
What do you do when your vendor is no where to be found?

Former G35driver Vendor
That was going to be my first questions, too....
that made me laugh like crazy. lol
Sad but true!
It's crazy, man. So many brands popping up from people just buying these in bulk, using fancy colors and selling them.
I'd love to know what material the seals are made of, how serviceable are they?
Where do you get replacements?
What size are the pistons?
Are they equally sized or sized in accordance to heat zones?
What proportioning tools are used for the change in the use of the fluid?
What material pad does the kit come with?
What's the heat threshold of the caliper?
What's the heat threshold of the rotor?
I've seen what Brembo brakes are really capable of after years of heading a SCCA race team and their design, technology and products really are developed and engineered for performance, not reverse engineered for colors and HUGENESS factor.
I'm a very firm believer in to each their own, do what you want to your car but I hope that these aren't being marketed as a "Race Brake Kit". They do look good and if that's what you're looking for, more power to you.
