They're nice brakes, but I'm really not a fan of that logo.

Next step would be to ditch those Volks and get some Rotas.

Do either of you actually know anything about the quality and performance of this bbk, or are you judging them based on zero knowledge?

Probably zero knowledge and doing their research on forums.

Haha yeah, you shoulda just got them from Phat Brakes or whatever. I was going to pick up a set while I was in Taiwan and just bring them back but I ended up sending my car to TNT so I'm broke. They looks really good though, I like the purple ones more but all good!

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....

You obviously have no clue what you're talking about. This bbk is identical to the Alliance BBK which has been tested extensively, including at the track. Do a search for it on my350z.com and you'll see all the positive reviews about it's quality and performance.
