    I am going to be trying EU spec Subaru WRX rear Brembo calipers with vented Subaru rear rotors with aluminum hats drilled for 4x100. I'll keep people upto date on this when the stuff comes in.

      Carbotech will make a rear pad for a non-M3 E30. I never ran them, but I inquired, and they can make them for you. I used to run their front pads, and had zero complaints about them. I also run the HT-10's all around on my E30 M3 with brake ducting and think the setup is fantastic.

        Unless I am confused, I have Hawk Blue's brand new, 2 sets at the shop for my E30.

          The M3 swap would be easier, period.

          Adam,

          I am going to agree with Charlie on this. If your E30 is going to be a track rat, going with the E30 M3 stuff is a very good idea. ALSO, on the E30 M3 stuff vs E36 ti/325i stuff, it is much easier to correct the front suspension geometry of a lowered car with the E30 M3 parts. You can easily buy or have made a spacer for the strut housing to lower spindle in order to correct the geomerty and remove the horrible bump steer these cars get.

          HTH,
          Trent
