zero 1162 Report post Posted March 26, 2020 Not sure if I missed it but the perfect partner for 330i front brakes on a e36 is e46 325i/328i rear brakes. That gives you the best brake bias, and you dont need to mod for the brake shoes. Done this swap on a mates e36 328i and the 330i e46 fronts and 325i/328i e46 rears made a really good improvement.
