BMW BBK Performance Upgrade

[danewilson77]

Think there's anyway to make this fit on E46?

Pretty good price....

Not unless you can find someone to make custom carriers for you. There was a company that did at one point but it sounds like they aren't making them anymore.

See last paragraph in post 8:

ok....I suspect the price is only gonna drop from here...then I may roll the dice and have some made.

So those aren't e46-specific? ECS lists them as an option for the 2005 330i (no mention of mods needed).

Idk....that would be sweet. I will talk to Joe at ecs later. I guess I assumed they were e9x brakes

According to ECSs Tuning Application Guide for those, they are no good for the E46.

Yeah...that's what I figured but I didn't dig.

They usually have application on right hand side...and in this case they musta had a pull down or something.

I'm blown away by how cheap they can offer a genuine part that costs much much more from the dealer. That's an impossibly good deal.
How can they do this? The parts really are genuine, aren't they?

My drilled rotors say bmw performance on the box! And the tap that seals it. And a bunch of german on the rotor itself.

Yes....

I wish I could make them work...

That would be awesome to retrofit this kit on the ZHP. A little overkill but hey, that's alright.

They're so cheap because they're ending production and being liquidated - that being said I'm sure they could pull $250 a set for the Performance Rotors easy (Not the ones in this thread).

[az3579]

Come to think of it, my slotted rotors may be a BMW performance part. The PO says new brakes were done all around shortly before I bought the car straight from BMW, and the fronts have slotted rotors.
That is a sweet deal if you ask me.
