The hub and spindle are different.

Now that's very sad! This looks like it is going to be about the same price as a BBK from Brembo if not even more expensive!

These are adapters that enabled Lexus IS300 owners to have a "cheap" BBK using Supra TT calipers

Nice! In VW and AUDI world, caliper adapters are quite common. It is somewhat common to see a raggedy ass Golf with Porsche calipers and disks with a clever use of adapters. ECSTuning makes adapters for calipers but nothing for BMW so far...

Well I am hoping that HP Autowerks will

vasillalov · 02-24-2012, 12:30 PM

Any updates?

HP Autowerks · 02-24-2012, 05:19 PM

Waiting for the calipers to show up from Germany

How is a BMW 4 piston front BBK(use your existing rotors) with brake pads for $1370 sound? Options will include stainless steel lines, different pad compounds and rotors.

Think that sounds like a pretty decent deal...

I knew it! Direct fucking swap! Harold, count me in on it! When can I purchase those?

Can we get powdercoating options with this?

Looks great Harold! I bet you'll have some good business for this item!

vasillalov · 02-29-2012, 10:19 AM

I did a search on the the interwebs for Brembo 98.5030.40 and it turns out those calipers are used in Audi, Acura and Jaguar.

Harold, we need more pictures of those things installed!

ciomas · 02-29-2012, 10:47 AM

Sounds more than reasonable. Will rear's be available as well?

I was thinking a solid color option (the logo can be applied w/ a sticker and cleared over I am sure)

E9TOU · 02-29-2012, 11:28 AM

Interesting. Curious to see how it looks installed.

The rears are a single piston in either case. You just pick your favorite rotors and pads and call it a day.
