I'm sure you guys have seen this question a million times and I've been searching for the answer all morning. I think i have it figured out now so just to confirm:

I just bought a 97 318ti and was surprised to find that my front rotors arent vented (as im sure most, if not all, of yours are). So my question is to upgrade my front brakes to vented rotors do i have to also upgrade my calipers? I've seen mention of the 325 brake upgrade. My rotors dont have too much life left in them and i want to get this figured out in case i can find an upgrade.

Thanks a lot!

ps i'll be posting pictures of my car soon!
