Brake upgrade on 89 318i

[E30_Don]

Are the barkes on 6cyl E30's differant to those on a 1989 318i, the fron discs on mine feel slightly warped and dont stop vey well, would 325 front calipers, discs and pads bolt straight onto the fixings??? -Nick

You can use vented discs and you will also need the vented calipers too for the extra clearence, and it will all bolt straight on.

I've also got an '89 318i and was wanting to fit rear disks. I've heard you can do it by replacing the whole trailing arms but that sounds a bit excessive. Any other options?

Hi there, yes you will need to source the trailing arms complete.
