LF (from Sydney): BBK kit for F80
I am looking for a Big Brake Kit for 2017 F80 M3. Currently, the car has OEM blue brakes. I am in Sydney. New or used parts, no worries.
Any brand (OEM Golds/Greys/Reds/F10-DIY, AP, Brembo, Stoptech, Sparta) or advice welcome for consideration.... Thanks folks! Last edited by Stapler; 08-04-2019 at 12:29 AM.. |

Seller is in Canada and have been accused of certain things in the above thread. I looked through your posts; you are a brake connoisseur OzcarM3. I am going through the same as you did..... Last edited by Stapler; 08-05-2019 at 07:18 PM.. |

I fitted an MPS M2 BBK to my M4. It's virtually the same as the M3/M4 carbon ceramic brake option with steel rotors and red 6 spot front and 4 spot rear calipers. The genuine MPS kit is surprisingly about 3k cheaper than an aftermarket Brembo or AP BBK and the braking performance and pedal feel is a massive improvement over the stock blue setup.

Sometimes you can't rely on aftermarket caliper piston sizes working optimally hydraulically where the genuine calipers provide that and the brakes aren't over reactive or unbalanced running on the ABS. Pull the ABS fuse on an HSV Commodore with HSV/AP 4 spots and they lock the rear wheels up, massively over braked on the rear of the car, but I guess they look good! ABS is good to prevent lock up's but you don't want the ABS compensating for incorrect front/rear bake balance on a race track. Last edited by RevNev; 08-25-2019 at 02:01 AM.. |
