Wilwood BBK on AWD sedan

I am new to this forum, but realized a lot of guys are very knowledgable about cars. Hopefully someone can help me out here.

I bought front and rear wilwood BBK for my 2010 G37xS couple days ago and waiting for them to arrive. However, aftering browsing through wilwood website, i realized all their BBK are not for AWD. I have found someone online insatlled a kit which is also not for AWD on his G35x, my question is will the kit work on my car, should i bother to try, or just refund. Would be nice that someone can tell me why they don work on AWD.

This is the kit i bought:
  • Superlite 6R Bolt-On Front Hat & 13.06" Disc Brake Kit (Part #140-11583-DR) for Both Front Wheels
  • Dynapro 4R Bolt-On Rear Hat & 12.90" Disc Brake Kit (Part #140-9507-DR) for Both Rear Wheels
  • Full Line Kit for the Front with 24" Steel Braided Lines, Caliper Fittings, and Brake Line Fittings
  • Full Line Kit for the Rear with 18" Steel Braided Lines, Caliper Fittings, and Brake Line Fittings
Front kit includes parts for both front wheels:
  • Drilled & Slotted, 1.25" Thick x 13.06" O.D. Rotors
  • Superlite 6R Calipers - Red
  • Caliper Mounting Brackets
  • BP-10 Smart Compound Brake Pads
  • Brake Hats
  • All Hardware necessary to install the complete braking system on both front wheels
Rear kit includes parts for both rear wheels:
  • Drilled & Slotted, 1.10" Thick x 12.90" O.D. Rotors
  • Dynapro Radial Calipers - Red
  • Caliper Mounting Brackets
  • BP-10 Smart Compound Brake Pads
  • Brake Hats
  • All Hardware necessary to install the complete braking system on both rear wheels
Thanks alot in advance!

i see no reason they wont work on awd. theres no diff in the brake system.

Why such small rotors though.

Stock BBK comes with 14" front and 13.8" rear.

Thanks for your quick reply, Stoof

just got my wilwoods recently installed, also ordered on ebay, i requested 14" rotors which they switched for me and i paid the difference

with my kit, the ebay seller sent his own stainless steel lines, not the orignal wilwood, it wasn't holding the brake fluid and i had to buy the lines directly from wilwood . just letting you know because it took my mechanic a few hours to figure out what was wrong. hopefully you wont have the same problem

do you know if there is any difference between awd brake and non awd brake

btw, your wilwood bbk looks awesome, like the unique color. You are one of the reasons i chose wilwood.
