As some of you may know, I've been researching BBKs for our Altimas lately and I have come up with three options:

1) AP Racing 4 piston fronts for $1,786+ Stillen or Rotora rear slotted/drilled rotors for $230 = 2k

2) Akebono G37s 4 piston front, 2 piston back = $1600 plus needs to be powdercoated for $200 4pcs= $1800

3) Rotora 4 piston front+ 2 rear rotors for about $2200

Hmmm, I'm assuming the AP racing will be of best quality but having a true BBK front and back for only $1800 powdercoated seems to be a steal. What do you guys think?

First, what is your objective for having a BBK? Will you be using this for track? Is this mainly for looks? Are you looking to have more stopping power over stock? What is your price range?

Will the Front & Rear calipers off the G37 bolt right up? And I'm guessing that you would have to use the G37 rotors also. Right? Also is there a bolt up plat for this modification? I've been looking at doing a BBK but they are so expensive! And if I was to do one I'd like all 4 corners done at the same time.
