E30 performance brakes.

I kind of thinking trying to connect ABS back on and see if it would feel also see if it would improve my lap times or hurt it. Thanks for advice guys.

My first day out with the upgraded fronts, a non abs master, and stock bias valve the fronts locked on my at the end of a straight and the pedal would not come back. I had 50 yards of sliding to try. Resulted in a trip into the sand trap and softball sized holes in my front Hoosiers. Rears didn't even flat spot. I thought it was just my error.

When you start going fast, you need to pay attention to your consumable costs. BBKs usually end up being cheaper in the long run. I wish I would have put mine on a long time ago, I would have saved a lot of money. I went from changing pads and rotors every 3 weekends to once a year (17-18 events).
If you guys can run stock brakes, then you arent going fast enough.

Very true. I'm swapping my stock rears out soon because pads for Wilwood calipers are half what the stock E30 rears cost. I'll make the up-front cost for the brake kit back in two seasons.

anyone using IE BBK? On their website they only offering Polymatrix race pads. I personally never heard about these pads. Is it good? Any other companies like HAWK, PFC or Pagid make pads for this IE BBK?

I was on board the designing process of the kit, I've lost count but there are plenty of guys tracking them (a number in Australia seem quite fond of them).

There are a number of polymatrix pads to choose from (there are a few favorites, depending on your situation). It is an in-house Wilwood pad shape (so there is no cross mixing of FMSI numbers from other pad makers). BUT the pads are pretty reasonably priced and do a good job.

Polymatrix is the model name for Wilwood brake pads. Here's a page describing Wilwood compounds

I used Poly B pads on my MINI for HPDEs and really liked them. I used BP-20 for street.

For other pads, you'll need to look up pads with a backing plate that is compatible with the Wilwood caliper that IE is using.

Has UUC fixed the issues with a) squealing brake pads (i seem to recall there was an issue with the spring clip on the brake pad?) and b) cheap hardware that seems to start rusting immediately after installation?

If not then I'd recommend staying away... I drive mine on the street 95% of the time and squealing is super annoying.

When I bought mine it came with spring clips but I did not install it since I only use it for track days. I did had to buy caliper rebuild kit from UUC once already thought.
