    SOLD BBK B5 S4 Stasis Alcon 328mm 6 piston project

    SOLD

    Selling a brake kit I bought a few years ago. I started to rebuild and gather new parts, but never ended up finishing the project. It's the 6 piston version Alcon kit using 328mm 2 piece rotors.
    The calipers were stripped and then powder coated silver, with black "Alcon". Powder coat job is good at best IMO..
    New Alcon seals and bleeders were bought ($400). Crossover tubes, brackets and hats are all used and in good condition.
    The caliper pistons are ok....11 are included, one is missing. I would either buy new ($$$$$). Or pay a machine shop to machine new Pistons out of the included solid stainless bar stock.
    Needed to complete:
    -Pads and lines
    -rotors or rotor rings
    -Alcon pistons, or machine Pistons out of included stainless bar
    asking $700 or best offer

    Just an FYI it's not as simple as having new pistons turned the reason they're so expensive new is they're heat treated and ground. It's a very expensive process

    Interesting.... When I was searching around, talked with a few people who recommended a certain grade of stainless, so that's the route I was going to go.
    If anyone has info about how to get new Pistons cheaper than $50/ea, chime in.

    Rotor rings were bad, they got thrown. I contacted racing brake to see if they have a replacement option, no response yet
    If the price sounds too high, make offers.
