Are there any bolt on substitues or upgrades? I already have several caliper sets from various parts cars. e36 325 and M3 rears and e30 318 and 325 rears. Will any of these fit? I'd rather not have to go and buy more brake parts! | | | 05-27-2006, 03:34 AM | #2 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | hmmmm ... pretty sure the e36 32x series (and thus m3) will NOT fit (as i was sent a set by accident). i'm not sure on the e30 ones, but you should be able to check part numbers via www.realoem.com to see if any of them match up. or, likely easier, check the part number for the calipers on the 318ti to see if they match up to any other bmw model. awww heck, i'll check ... hold on. here's the relevant diagram and part number list ... http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...67&hg=34&fg=10 now let's see if it matches up to any other car ... looks like the are specific to e36 compacts: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/partxref....=on&showeur=on __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles current mods: bilstein sports, bavauto springs, e30 m3 LCABs, solid metal ball joints, bavauto RSMs w/reinforcements, e30 3.73 LSD & halfshafts, supersprint cat-back exhaust, turner rear sway bar reinforcements, IE poly subframe & RTABs + camber/toe kits, powdercoated e36 32x front calipers, sport mirrors, H&R 28mmF/19mmR sway bars, x-brace, auto solutions SSK w/poly bushing upgrade, BMW CD43 head unit, DICE HD Radio w/iPod integration and "stealth" HD antenna, staggered style 68s, orange electronic TPMS, leather arm rest, JT Designs metal undertray acquired and awaiting install: heated seat kit, cali top switch relo, lumbar support kit, park distance control kit, heated washer nozzle kit, m-coupe rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, and halfshafts, m-coupe front/rear brakes with master cylinder, under hood light kit, mud flaps, rear sun blind, auto-dimming rear view mirror, tilt steering wheel retrofit, apexcone 5000K HIDs with 55W ballasts 2002 X5 4.4 Sport Package, 53.5k miles Current Mods: e46 m3 steering wheel | | | 05-27-2006, 03:38 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: Walnut Creek, CA Posts: 642 | Nothing larger than the stock ti rears will fit. I don't know if e30 rear calipers fit. For us ti folk, we really only have one way to get big brakes in the rear, and that's by swapping M coupe/roadster trailing arms. Rui Azevedo of http://www.azevedomotorsports.com has Brembo Lotus calipers on the rear of his swapped ti, but he machined his own billet carriers. I asked him about it and he wanted $500 to machine another pair. __________________ '95 330ti CS w/sr delete, S50USB30, cams, 24# inj, Conforti SW, Euro HFM, Samco Silicone Intake Boot, BBTB, Euro Oil Cooler, JTD CAI Duct, RE DMS exhaust, RE Tranny mounts, CF Valve Cover, LTW flywheel/Kevlar sprung hub clutch, RE SSK, 3.46 Finned LSD (M6) , M3 tranny, Brembos, RE Wheel Studs, SS brake/clutch lines, CF interior, Rear Headrest retrofit, Tilt Steering retrofit, 13.5 lb DynaBatt in rear, LED interior/footwell lights, ZKW HID, Headlight Aim Control, Rear fog light w/cluster indicator, CF 3 Aux gauge pod, BMW Traffic Pro/Alpine MP3-CD Changer, Staggered LTW wheels, '95 M3 steering rack, VIS CF Hood, M3 LTW Strut Bar, TCK SA coilovers, Red LTW Motorsport Seatbelts, OEM Fire Extinguisher, Z8 Starter button, Auto dim rear view mirror w/ Homelink/Compass, PDC, Rear Sun Shade, Euro Gauge Cluster w/oil temp/shift light , Headlight Washers, "Motorsport" Door Handles, CF Grills, French ZKW Fogs, Euro dash bins, Power Lumbar Support is next, Coming e39 M5 interior light, Bimmer Magazine 8/2007 | | | 06-20-2006, 05:39 AM | #4 | Junior Member Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Linden N.J Posts: 10 | Quote: Originally Posted by clex2 Nothing larger than the stock ti rears will fit.
