Even the Cadillac ATS-V while 2k cheaper comes standard with 6 piston front and 4 piston rear brembos...

Change Pads to Endless MX-RS or MX72 and everything will be okay + RBF660 fluid.

As the OP of this thread and one who had the copyrighted idea of doing this I demand a 95% discount from racingbrake and a nominal fee from all those having this done so as to buy the 6 piston and 4 piston gold calipers... My team of lawyers are ready to take action should you all not comply!!!

Sponsors here can sell you a full 400mm/380mm Brembo GT BBK for about $600 more shipped.

A really great opportunity wasted.

We will make it work, I just have to find the time !! At worse case scenario I will source out the rotors and custom build them to fit the hold caliper.

Technic · 09-24-2015, 07:45 PM

Just let me know when you are getting the front rotors so we can measure everything required to make the calipers fit. We can make it to fit the F8x 380mm/370mm and the 400mm(M5)/370mm OEM rotors, with custom brackets if needed.

I will have the calipers finished next Monday... but my M3 will take some time to arrive.

Were you in downtown fort laud today around 1?

Dweezil · 10-13-2015, 10:27 PM

can you update on progress
I have CCB and track around 10-12 days per year
Need steel as I don't want to shell out the coin to replace CCB rotors
Have read about F10 steel as an idea but does it work??

Since you have them laying around, could you measure the bolt distance on them? I mean the distance pictured in the attachment.

You'd be helping me a lot!

BR, Chris.

Bump. Any update on this?

Ok I pulled the trigger, bought the front and rear rotors from the m5 so when you want to get together and figure this thing out ?

kitesurfer · 11-12-2015, 01:49 PM

Excited to see how rotor/caliper swap from the m5 goes....
I am wondering if anyone as explored the possibility of moving the 4 piston front caliper to the rear on the F80...Possibly moving the 380mm rotor to the rear also, cause I believe stock is 370mm... just some food for thought... I believe they were able to achieve this with the C7 corvette and it has similar brembo calipers

we are doing all of that this weekend, also test fitting the 396x28 rear M5 rotor to fit the Gold Rear 4 pot caliper (with new custom brackets) At least I hope lol

Dweezil · 11-18-2015, 05:10 PM

How did the rotor swap go? Do the F10 steel rotors directly swap for the CCB rotors?
