BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) where did you find the brembo brakes ? they weren't standard in the E38 yes some of the later e38 728i 730i 735i etc came with 4 pot piston brembo calipers. marty (bm weapon ) may still have some http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....8&hl=brembo maybe you could fit the hub carrier from e38 to a e39 strut?? may work ?? might have to be v8 e39 type though??

NZ BMW 368 Report post Posted August 4, 2012 Bit of a waste of time IMO - the stock brakes are fairly good. And if you're car is an M5 you obviously get the special BMW M division brakes. I would just be more concerned with my OEM brakes being well maintained. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
