Need help guys. Went to the dealership today because of heavy vibration under hard braking. Found (as I knew they would) that I have warped rotors up front. So..... Like any mod bug bitten G owner I decided to inquire on Sport brakes for my non sport sedan. They said absolutely not. Will not sell me them let alone install them! I need help. I want to buy the Akebono BBK for my car but cannot find any place that sells them. Operative word is *NEW*

 

Someone hasn't done their research yet then LOL.

Tunerz Store
Z1 Motorsports
ConceptZ Performance
TheNismoShop

And I can't forget all the vendors on the website that offer the BBK packages. Go check the vendor marketplace, sir.

 

I bought mine from TunerzStore. They were shipped from a dealer, but i don't have the packing slips anymore. I'll try looking in my inbox if I still have the UPS emails.<br /><br /><br /><br />

Best part about tunerz store is if you email them they can customize the package. I got mine with stoptech Ss lines, hawk hps pads, and centric blank rotors.<br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br />
Edit: My calipers, hardware, and SS lines were sent from Sam Swope Infiniti<br /><br />

Only issue for you now is to find a place that will install. If you must use one, try the next closest dealer?

 

Wait, the dealership specifically told you the rotors were warped? Didn't that bother you a little bit; maybe give you pause to question their integrity somewhat?

Your rotors may be old, and grooved, and rusty around the hat and the edges, with a measurable amount of surface lost, and your pads may be toast... but your rotors are most certainly not warped.

 

Oh, F^ck.... Thanks. I'm a dipsh!t and a little out of it today. Thanks for the insight. Anybody know how difficult it is to install these? Do they neede or have wheel bearings in them? I don't know jack about our G sedan Brakes.

 

No, the fronts are 100% warped and the rears are not very good either. They just wanted to re-surface the rotors but I saw this as my opportunity to get some BBK.

 

-Warped- Brake Disc and Other Myths

 

Thanks but I read that about a week or two ago when I first saw it posted elsewhere.

 

 

This x 1000

You had pad deposits. I cant believe the number of dealerships that diagnosis warped rotors

 

Unfortunately not. I do plan on taking the CTS-V Wagon for a little spin this coming weekend

 

I'm sure you will enjoy that! Personally I'd like to try the 67 Chevelle ... brings back memories ... my first car, except it was blue.

 

The price difference between new rotors and a complete BBK is pretty significant...
Do you want the BBK because race car or for looks?

 

Nope, it's because I drive like an @Ashley sometimes.... And I have been trying to justify it for a while. LOL

 

The switchback color is VERY close but is off slightly. Still looks awesome at night though. The LED turn signals are definitley my favorite. The crisp on/off just looks rich. Next LED project will DEFINITELY be LED mirror caps

I'll need to break out the DSLR and shoot it with some altered shutter settings to really capture the lights but here's what iPhone 5S is capable of LOL. I will probably just get a video of the switch backs and ambers working - seems more appropriate to show it that way anyhow.
