It really breaks my heart to do this, but for a couple of reasons i have to, im gonna be needing some extra cash here in the near future, and its gonna cost me too much to convert it to M3 fitment.
HISTORY
Ok, i bought this kit off impulse7, See original thread here...he had it on his supercharged E36 325iS.
It was a deal too good to pass. I verified with Rotora themselves, as well as doing a bunch of research on brake swaps between models and found that it would fit on my E4 328i and the only part i'd need according to rotora is rear brake lines. (RL.34015) @ approx $90 each. So i bought them. Well life got in the way and thet sat and sat. So im working on replacing the ole sedan here with a E46 M3, and the thought of fitting this kit got me excited.
Long story short, its prohibitively too expensive for me to fit these to an M3.
according to zuckenhausen, and then later verified by Rotora, id need new lines, rotor hats and caliper brackets for ALL FOUR corners, to properly fit them on a an M3. Its all broken down in this thread here.
Only good news is Stoptech and Brembo rotors could be used with the kit. So contrary to popular believe you have choices there, as well as pads.
I have searched high and low and found a few pads that fit the calipers but iirc, the rears are a like 2mm too wide inner to outer diameter. easy fix for less dusty and more track ready pads.
These pads are.
Threads on this kit..
SPECS
This is a full FRONT AND REAR kit.
355mmx32mm or 14" ALL AROUND
6 Piston front, and 4 piston rear calipers.
Calipers are red in color, center hats are black.
You will need 18" wheels MINIMUM for this kit, and im sure there are a few 18" wheels that will still have clearance issues.
CONDITION
FRONT ROTORS are hot spotted. fine for if you are buying these for show, and daily driving, not so fine for the track. So my price is going to reflect if you want to buy new front rotors. Pads still have a ton of life left.
As i mentioned, stoptech and brembo 355 rotors will work with this kit too.
Will those brand rotor discs fit the Rotora hats? I DO NOT KNOW! but they are 10 bolts like most others. i do not know the bolt spacing.
PRICE
These rotors are huge and heavy, so keep that in mind.
Asking $1500 plus shipping.

Now on to the sexy stuff we all like to see and :drool: over...
