Very nice. Are these lighter than the stock unit or at least close in weight?

Will be comparing these with the AP racing offering when i come to upgrade

For me the best part is that these will fit with the stock wheels.

Well if they are priced in the same range as the 370z, these are a steal. the MSRP for 14" rotors with the super narrow 6 piston caliper is around $1800. So now we need a group buy set up to bring them down to $1600 shipped and i will be on that like stink on shit.

The rear solution uses an Iron hat and as you can see in the pictures will be able to use the stock ebrake set-up. (black caliper photos is rear)

Nice! These guys make quality parts, and their kits are typically a substantial amount less than the competitors, can't wait for pricing.

Quote from Wilwood:

"Official public release will be early 2013, as production on parts is in progress for the first batch."


I was hoping for sooner too. But realisticaly, I'm looking at doing this in the spring anyway. So I don't really mind the wait.

I've read a number of negative things about Wilwood on some BMW M car forums. What do you guys think? Problems with caliper flex etc. are the main complaints.

Most there recommended Stoptech if you can't spring for an AP, Alcon, or Brembo kit.
