Great job on all the input, I am working with Justin from everything g35 and I am going to get the Stoptech kit with the slotted zinc rotors....fronts only right now, but knowing me it wont be long and I'll have them on the rears too. Thanks again guys and please keep the pics of your BBK's coming...

My car is in Texas and I am in your neck of the woods (Bay Area). I can take some pics when I return home.

On another note:

Obviously one thing you want to check before you go with a BBK, is wheel clearance. If you go with Stoptech, I would download the template and check your wheels. Mine were a tight sqeeze, but the Enkei wheels I run (RPM2's with +35 offset) clear with a few mm's to spare.

I will be patiently waiting for the pics

I shouldn't have a problem clearing any BBK with the rims I have coming in. I do need to do a test fit (template) on my 18" OEM sport wheel though but also shouldn't have any issues (putting on 15mm spacers). Fingers crossed

You don't need the rear kit for street driving.

When the time comes for rears, if money is tight I would consider going with the Racing Brake oem caliper 13" rotor rear upgrade for 1/4 of the price. You can paint the spacer and caliper to match your front kit and they look very nice together while still keeping a good F/R brake bias.
