[ETA - E30 Adapters] 5 Lug kit with e46m3 front and e46 325/328i brake setup
Im in the initial stages of my swap and i have full e36m3 front end for this but the rears im still sorting but i have e36m3 (99) rear rotors and calipers, will your bracket work for these with the z4 flanges? Thanks just piecing it all together right now. and if the brackets work, prices on what i need to complete the 5 lug swap ie the brackets and anything else you would think i need?
No, the rear bracket wont fit for e36m3 rear brake setup on z4 flange
Hi
I looking only for the rear brake bracket for a e46 325/328i rear calipers.
I already bought a IRP kit for front and I'm going to put also e46 300mm disc and caliper on front.. I saw your post only now..
I don't know Epytec kit is...
Basically ETA & IRP front sleeve kit are same offset...
I have one customer used ETA front e46m3 caliper adapter combine with IRP front sleeve kit..
you may check on his IG @that_bimmer_guy
And about the offset, I don't know how IRP measure it...
I got 14.5mm wider offset because I did design & development & install by myself
If you don't believe it, you can measure it by your self... I can teach you how to do it
I am working as an engineer for 12 yrs, not like the other seller that only selling stuff...
All my buyers were satisfied with all answered questions
I am not only caliper adapters that I made...
wheels, custom 2 pcs brake rotors, solid shifter, dssr, s50 euro itb adapter m50/52, recaro seat bracket..
you can check it @e30adapters
And all my stuff have been tested 1 year both daily and track, before it sell on market..
For the wheel... it will out from fender with e38 styl5 16" et.23. but it can be solve with fender flare
This will fit with e46m3 brake..
Why you will use 300mm front brake from e46 325/328..
I ever used it, and not enough stoping my e30 m42 stroker 2.0L,
according to my driving style and traffic in my place..
So, its better to buy front e46m3 and rear e46 325/328 caliper adapters, imo...
I’m from Israel
There are only 4 e46m3 all country and 3 36m3.
M3 in my country is very rare.
My car (e30 325i original) has only 10 in country...
I bought brakes bracket and sleeves from IRP,
I was thinking to put Compact full axle for rear but aI just found information that will be wider 18mm.. big problem =\ so I looking for another option.
Z4 or e90 hub fits bolt on in my car? 12/86, VIN 2270083
Arm brakes works also bolt on?

I think I read every post you wrote on this forum since 2014. I'm sure you are a pro!
But I can't import used brakes parts to Israel. every thing I bought from ebay I ask from seller evrey time to write "Bicycle parts" or someting else are not "car parts" on the package - because the country make a lot of problem for who are loves cars.
About the caliper, I also bought the adapter for the e36/46 non-m caliper before I read all the post here, so I think I will stay with this for now. I can find here a e46 330i caliper, it's most expensive in the world but this is what we get here.
if someone know if they (the 330 caliper) will fit to e38 style 5 rim - it's will be great!
about the rear, I'll check if I can find this "506" caliper, than I'll buy from you the rear bracket. or if you can tell me that e46 330i rear calipers are fit to your bracket it's can be good for me because I have a friend want to sell caliper like thats now.
If there some option to reduce the offset on the front wheel, my life will be easier.
Yes, my rear adapter fit 330i as well
But you need to make handbrake/parking brake brake shoe spacer.. 330i rear disc brake have bigger brake shoe diameter...
Cool but too much work for me.
I need to check now if my kit can be used with e38 style 5 and front 330i caliper and if the another bracket of the brembo e38 728i euro calipers that’s are taken off e38 728i can get inside the style 5? (Euro).
And the most important, if you have any idea how to reduce front offset than I’ll can fit the style 5 with 225/45/16 et23 8J without to rub.

It should be no problem e38 styl 5 on 330i front brake
Brembo e38 728i fit with styl 5, for sure... because it was designed for this chassis
e38 728i have thick disc brake hat
