M roadster or MZ3 rear brakes will not fit without the trailing arms (hub is different ... ask J!m for details as i'm going on what he has stated before). if you're getting the trailing arms, then you might as well get the whole subframe from the M donor and then you're looking at a whole lot more than a brake job since i'm not autocrossing or racing mine, i am planning to just do the 325/8 fronts and stock rears (calipers are at the powdercoaters now). even if you could put the M versions on the back, i would think you'd want to put the M versions on the front (need the M spindles, M calipers, M rotors, appropriate pads ...).
