I think the brakes are all the same on the front of the E30's. The only difference being vented or soild disks... I stand to be cocrrected 8)

Mark, im in the process of upgrading the calipers on my 318i, front solid discs to vented.

Ive got the front calipers, is it as simple as just changing the calipers onto the existing hanger/bracket?

Obviously, ive got brand new ATE power discs on the way and Pagid Fast road pads, RBF 600 brake fluid aswell, and brand new rear pagid brake shoes, so i should stop quite well :D

Adam, the front calipers all have the same mounting points so yes they'll bolt straight on.

The power discs and Pagid fast pads are a good combination, even better get a set of goodridge hoses for that extra bite and feel :D there is a group buy on them here http://www.e30zone.co.uk/modules.php?na ... ic&t=11929

If you have rear drums you need a 4 line kit or if you have rear discs you need a 6 line kit. The ABS is a red herring, it makes no difference regarding hoses.

Hi Daz, looked on the ETK and it lists the same part numbers for 323i and 325i rear calipers so yes I'd put money on them being the same.

Do you mean the triangular cap with the vacuum feed for the fuel regulator ?. I thought that went with the manifold ? :?

I'm fine mate, a bit stressed out. Lots to do at work and home but not enough hours in the day :(

Not long 'til :burn: round the ring !.
