Are you aware of any difference between the euro e36 323ti factory front brakes and the US factory 318ti front brakes? The earlier US models (95-97 I believe) came with a solid rotor, while the later years came with vented rotors, which means slightly different calipers. If there is a difference, how much impact could this have on your findings?

I have followed your rear custom brake project and I look forward to the results!
All e36 323ti have vented front. To my knowledge they are identical to the vented 318ti brakes. I do not know the details about the solid front 318ti brakes.
