jesus man, you need to post a write up

[Hey-U]

That looks really good, would like to hear more.

Brown-bos? I'm not sure how well those actually held up to track use on an evo, but they're an upgrade for an E30 for sure. How's the brake balance?

Wow!! I want a set. Do you have some details on how you made it work? Maybe a writeup?

first job was to make custom made brackets,,the most difficult work(i dont know exactly the mm of the brucket),,then i cut the original aluminium plate behind the original brakes to put the biggers discs,,then the discs get redrilled to make them 4 lug,,then another problem came up and was that the biggers calipers hit the rims,,to fix that i put aluminium 1 cm spacer with racing sparco bolts..them another problem came up..the rims inside center circle was smaller thn the spacer so i redrilled the rims and make the circle bigger.then another problem came up..the disc hit the bolts that hold the entire system(i dont know the translaton lol)so i put differnet bolts which are smaller 1 mm..then another problem came up..the brake oil pump didnt work well because of those huge calipers so i put 325i new one from the dealer,,as you can see a lot of work and problems came up,,its difficulty job and i was getting very down when problems came up one by one,,but the final result is perfect now
thanks god(sorry about my english)

Nice setup! What size are the pistons? How's the F/R bias?

...the brake now is like train...

Doesn't a train take like a half mile to stop? (sorry, had to... :D)

Brown-bos indeed. On my Evo 8 they turned brown first day at the track and black by the second day. It's a heavy car with lots of HP, so the key is using every brake cooling trick you can...ducting, high temp fluid, right mix of pad compounds an adjusting your braking technique. Not a good feeling when the pedal hits the floor and the brakes are gone.

I'd really like to see some pictures of the mounts.

Wow, nice work. I'm definitely way too lazy to ever do anything like that.
