    Only time will tell.

    The Race kit had a slight contact situation with one brand of aftermarket tie rod last year. Very unusual. The Corrado rotors are a bit more inward than stock, which is why I suspect the same situation MAY occure. No sure it will.

    They don't hold the pad the same way. That's about it. For more details, please go on Wilwood's website, they have a complete description of their products.

    Same price. Both calipers sell around $140-$155 on the net. If I don't have a decent pad selection with the Dynapro, then I will use the Dynalite with bridge bolt.

    I am also offering the caliper adapters alone so that if people want to buy used Dynalie off eBay and cheap rotors, then they will have the opportunity to save a few $. The hardest part is the mounts. First, they must be designed. Then making a set with a hacksaw, pressdrill, files and taps will probably take a whole afternoon. While results will be... well. Homegrown. So, $160usd is not a bad price for mounts only.

    my setup (as pictured toward the beginning of the thread) uses Dynalite calipers. Pad selection has not been an issue.

    Great setup btw! I highly recommend it!

    On an e30 M3, the Superlite caliper will not fit the 11.75" x 1.25" and the strut's ears without major surgery. As most e30M3 owners will track their car like mad men, I don't recommend the Dynalite/Dynapro calipers for best pedal feedback and it will not bring anything better than the stock calipers don't have. I will let VAC/UUC use the Dynalites on their own kit.

    Nonetheless, I still use the Dynalite caliper on the e30 Street kit as it allows better clearance and low cost. e30 drivers who want better performance will pick the Sport and Race kits.

    Also, the M3s stock brakes are pretty good for most of us. Use HT10s and you'll be very happy.

    Brembo kit is 1500$ and you need to run at least 17s. I want to stick with 16s.

    So the Superlites, Dynalites and Dynapros are suitable for the regular e30 but not for the M? Is it a fitment problem? Itd just be nice to see a kit for the M3 under 1500$, like the two you have for the non Ms.

    So, do you have Dynapro (new model) or Dynalite?
    Look at Wiwood's Dynalite caliper and pads' description, and see if you can get what you need from www.rotorsandpads.com

    Dynapro and Dynalite pads are not the same.
