A friend of mine has a few sets of the evo 4 pot brembos and I am wondering if anyone has managed to fit these to their e30.

Which disks were used and what dimensions for brackets?

I have found a thread on the web where a guy from Cyprus managed to do it but his info is very vague.

I'm guessing you'd need:

Several people on here have fitted larger calipers, such as Porsche ones, etc., so there's bound to be a way.

Keri from WMS Brakes might be able to advise:

I know it needs to be 320mm disks.

Guess I would need to buy disks and then measure up for the Anna Daptor lol

Just don't want to buy bits unless I am sure the bits are right. Catch 22

I can get the calipers cheap but If its too much hassle I'll opte for one of the more tried and tested routes.

Well, you could always buy them, experiment with whatever bits you may need (most disc sellers from motor factors, etc. would allow returns if they're not suitable, or get some used ones from a scrappy, etc.) and sell the calipers on if you can't get them to fit.

As well as mounting plates for the calipers you will probably need wheels with a different offset.

If you don't mind making your own bracket then an audi tt 312mm disc fits nicely on the hub
Just need to drill 2 holes as open the center up by 1mm

Then once the disc is on you can put the caliper there and work out how the bracket will look

I'm using this disc with a e34 540i caliper
