E30 Brake upgrade

Recommended Posts

Currently have a 320i looking to slightly upgrade the brake system. Will E30 325i front brake calipers be an upgrade? Or are these the same as the ones currently fitted to my car? Thanks

2.0 and 2.5 six cyl e30 have same calipers (two different manufacturers hence two different rebuild kits, though same pads irrespective of caliper manufacturer) and rotors.

What are you looking to acheive with brake upgrades, and where's your system at currently?

General consensus is that the stock e30 braking system is fine for ~220bhp with careful choice of rotors, pads, fluids for application (road, fast road, track days).

HTH.
