[ngampleh]

Bump on this, iv got extra TI rears and an extra e36 m3 whole rear end and i want to get things mated and nasty by the end of the year.

good luck...

Any updates on e36 M3 rear?

[ngampleh]

Nice...But could you clarify..are the rear brakes Z4....or 330I...or E36 M3? Thanks

in my setup, I used e46 325i rear brake..
but also can use e46 330i rear brake
to retain e brake, you can make spacer/insert bushing on rotor or custom brake shoe

spacer/insert bushing for rotor



custom brake shoe


I can design & make for e36m3 rear calipers
please note, that e46 330 rear caliper bigger rotor diameter and cylinder than e36m3

330i = 320x22mm rotor and 42mm cylinder
e36m3 = 312x20mm rotor and 40mm cylinder

I can work it out for you...

Oh good, I don't have to get my design machined.

I have a set that I'm inquiring about getting machined. I modified the design so that you don't have to run washers under the caliper to space it correctly. Hopefully should be priced around the $150 range.

Still interested if this ends up happening.

Yup it's designed for non-M trailing arms (so 318ti/E30). It uses a Z4 rotor that's 294mm and vented. Works with the stock 318ti parking brake setup. I'll have two versions. One for use with the E36 M3 rear caliper and one for a 540i rear caliper.

This is till the same as the 300.de setup though? The 318ti uses the small wheel bearing.

I'm looking into doing e30 325 arms and wheel bearings, Z4 hubs and rotors, and e36M3 calipers. Having a engineering friend build the brackets for it when I get the parts, I'll have a few sets machined if it's not a huge pain and sell that for a little bit more than cost.

I guess if people wanted to do a pre-order kinda thing, I could get a quicker start on them. I just planned on doing them a little bit from now, because I'm caging the car currently.

I can give you some some insight from my swap. The guys over at 300mm.de offer an adapter that uses the e36 M3 rear caliper in combination with a Z4 rotor. With this setup you retain the proper braking ratio and gain a vented rotor.

http://300mm.de/294mm/294adapter.html

Uses:
-Ti or E30 trailing arms
-Ti Hub
-Ti e-brake hardware (or Z4 if you replace the dust shield)
-Z4 3.0si rotors
-E36 M3 caliper

Where is the NSFW warning for this picture?!?

Also interested in the brackets too!

[clavinZERO]

Is there an update on this of any kind? I am very interested. Would be a nice cheat to get my back brakes to be beefier without having to go full Z3-M!

[glucklich21]

I can

[peterz]

Colour me interested! You'll just keep this thread updated?

[glucklich21]

Price is quite reasonable.

Is it going to work on E30 Non-M trailing arms?
Will the config retain usage of E36 M3 Rear Rotor?

thx,
