PRODUCT INFORMATION

Bluestuff NDX is a high friction sport and race material that can be used for aggressive street driving and certain types of track use. The material has had much success on the track with quality aftermarket calipers (Multi piston systems with better release and cooling and larger rotors) and limited success with street based calipers where pad size and caliper drag can challenge any brake material. The biggest advantage of EBC Bluestuff NDX is their bite from cold and progressive brake feel and the ability to bring a car to a complete stop. This has led to the ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval of R90 which is now completed and certificates are being obtained (during July 2011). There are certain older street based caliper systems where even the new Bluestuff will have trouble handling the caliper and slider drag inherent in the systems but this scenario is exactly the same for our competitors. There is NO material that will be PERFECT on the track in all older street based caliper systems.

Frequently asked questions on Alcon Brakes

Why buy from Alconkits.com?

Can I buy Alcon Brakes and parts somewhere else?

Yes, some general automotive retailers and online marketplaces may list Alcon brake kits or individual components. However, Alcon brake systems are engineered, vehicle-specific systems, not commodity parts.

When purchased from Alconkits.com, you are buying directly from a specialist Alcon distributor with deep application knowledge, fitment validation experience, and long-term service support. This ensures you receive the correct configuration, pad compound guidance, wheel-clearance assistance, and ongoing support throughout the life of the brakes.

Why should I buy this kit from Alconkits.com instead of a retailer like eBay or Amazon, or marketplace?

Alconkits.com specializes exclusively in Alcon brake systems. We are not a general parts reseller.

When you buy from Alconkits.com, you get:

  • Application-specific guidance for heavy trucks like the Ram TRX
  • Fitment advice on your brakes to ensure they clear your wheels with guaranteed compatibility with your vehicle.
  • Wheel-fitment and clearance validation support
  • Pad compound recommendations based on real-world use (street, off-road, towing, track)
  • Access to replacement pads, rotors, seals, and service parts long after purchase
  • Lifetime technical support from Alcon brake specialists

Most marketplaces can sell a box. We support the entire brake system lifecycle for as long as you own it.

What makes Alcon big brake kits different from other aftermarket brake options?

Alcon brake kits are engineered systems, not assembled collections of parts.

Each kit is designed with:

  • Vehicle-specific caliper piston sizing
  • High-mass rotors for thermal capacity on heavy vehicles
  • Motorsport-grade materials and manufacturing processes
  • Compatibility with factory ABS, traction control, and master cylinder

This results in more consistent pedal feel, better heat management, and superior durability compared to budget or generic big brake kits.

Are Alcon brake parts “one-size-fits-all”?

No. Alcon brake kits are application-specific.

Vehicle weight, intended use, rotor size, caliper configuration, and pad compound all matter—especially on high-performance cars and trucks. Selecting the wrong configuration or pad compound can reduce braking performance, increase noise, or accelerate wear.

This is why buying from the specialist distributor, Alconkits.com, matters.

What type of driver is EBC 01-07 BMW M3 E46 3.2L Bluestuff Rear Brake Pads for?

Manufactured by EBC, we recommend this as being suitable for the following driving styles:

After purchase support questions.

What happens if I need pads, rotors, or service parts in the future?

This is THE question to ask. Alcon brake systems are fully serviceable.

When you purchase from Alconkits.com, you have long-term access to:

  • Replacement brake pads
  • Replacement rotors
  • Seal kits and service components
  • Technical guidance for maintenance and service intervals

This is a major advantage over marketplace sellers who may not support the product after the sale. We know what fits, we stock it, and we don't sell you parts you don't need.

Why does this Alcon brake kit cost more than stock brakes or some aftermarket options?

Alcon brake kits are built to deliver higher performance, durability, and consistency than OEM or budget aftermarket brakes.

The cost reflects:

  • Larger, higher-mass rotors for heat control
  • Precision-machined multi-piston calipers
  • Motorsport-grade materials and testing
  • Long-term serviceability and support

This is not a cosmetic upgrade—it is a functional braking system designed for demanding use.

Is Alconkits.com an authorized Alcon distributor?

Yes. Alconkits.com is an authorized and specialist Alcon distributor with one of the largest Alcon-focused catalogs and knowledge bases available.

Our team has extensive experience supporting Alcon brake systems across trucks, SUVs, performance cars, and specialized applications.

Our support resources include:

  • Direct access to Alcon brake experts
