Where to find rear disc swap for 84 318???

[Karlspackler]

I have searched on the board, does any place sell the parts or can I get a part list from someone who has done the swap?

Thanks Guys

I would assume you need a master cylinder off a 325, maybe the booster too.

That is what I was worried about.

Anyone know if I need the 325 booster or not?

I will probably be buying new parts from Bimmerworld for this but thanks

It's going to get pretty expensive if you buy it all new...
I would just find some good condition used parts to swap in.

This is true, I will not be buying ALL new stuff I guess, just some stainless brake lines, race pads etc..... If I can find a good set of calipers and rotors used I am all for it.

Rear hubs are different, etc.

You don't need to change the booster, but there's a proportioning valve just down from the master cylinder that you'll need to change to the rear disc type.

I'd get used parts for most of it, with new parts that you listed.

I am doing the same pretty soon, plan on pulling trailing arms/hubs/calipers from a 325, get them all cleaned before install ;)

Just buy rear trailing arms from a rear disk car, easiest, simplest and cheapest way to do it.
