I'd be interested in getting a setup for my turbo car in the next month. I'll be running it with a BBK with 2 piece front rotors so i probably wont need the rotors spacers or front caliper carriers. I'll need the rears though.

Question has anyone removed and reinstalled a new front hub with this kit? I need to change a hub already that got 2 lug holes stripped. Is there anything special to look out for or tricks to remove the hub without damaging or gouging the spindle sleeves?sigpicComment

Just posting my setup for info:
E36 m3 front hubs
E46 non-m front brakes
E30 m3 rear hubs/carriers
E23 735i rear calipers
My 16" wheels fit.

I am running e30 lines IIRC
My setup is:
e36 m3 hubs
e46 m3 front calipers
e46 m3 front rotors
e30 m3 rear hubs/stock e30 bearing (same part)
e39 540i aluminum rear calipers
e46 325i rear rotors

Let's see more setups. There seem to be a huge number of compatible parts, that is great.Drive it hard. Maintain it well.

FYI i did a brake bias check and there is an 8% difference in front brake bias with this set up compared to stock. From what I was able to calculate stock brake bias is around .653, with the e46 m3 front brakes and e39 rears brake bias would be around .711. To even it back out close to stock you would either have to run a brake proportioning valve, or (easier method) run more aggressive pads in the rear than in the front. for example a regular street pad up front with coefficient of .4 and a rear high performance street pad with coefficient of .52 yielded results almost identical to stock braking. At least if you're trying to mimic the stock bias.

Something here doesn't make sense, it sounds like apexgoblin is talking about increasing the rear brakes ability while jb325is is reducing it? Wouldn't you want to limiter for the front brakes?Comment
