2 more things need correcting though:

1. Need to still drill out the rear knuckle ~1mm to get the full pad sweep of the rotor surface area
2. I have some weird low speed clunk going on whenever I switch from reverse to forward, or back to reverse again. Only at low speeds when parking, doesn't do it if I go forward, stop then go forward again. Only when going from forward into R then back forward again..

Attachment 2115175

Big thanks to feuer of course for this thread and putting up with all our silly questions over the years

. ki_soarer for the eccentric bushings & included all the hardware and LMB335IS for all his help and support!

Might be the pads shifting, I had the same issues I didn't grease the back of the pads well enough and they shift during reverse

Yeah that a common issue with the stock 335i calipers, mine do it now with EBC yellow pads.

Welllll sob! Lol ya that must be it, cuz that's exactly what it feels and sounds like... I just thought it was a more complex issue than that actually. I only put a thin thin layer of caliper grease on at the time. Sweet, well I can live with that for a while till I get back in there, so tired of getting it on jack stands on and off again haha

seams like so much fucking around for the rears for a small upgrade so i just used performance 370mm on the front and 4 spot msport on the rear and it works so much better than all of the other setups.

Except that it's a great excuse to work on/modify car, and have a few cold ones and end up with full matching set. However, was temped first too since I had matching color 135 rear setup on... but wanted that phat rear 345 disc!

IllSic_Design · 08-26-2019, 02:46 AM

If anyone has a lead on some 370 front and rear calipers please let me know. Thanks

datbimmer · 08-27-2019, 06:30 AM

Finally got my hands on a full set of the 370/345s. Do we have someone making the bushings in Canada/USA ?

Buy them from @335d cypis or whatever his name is from across the pond. Good price(like $70 or so) and they arrive pretty quick

Thx ill send him a message. Whats the deal with pressing the bushings in at the right place? Can i pull them in at the right place screwing directly in them?

Thanks!

I imagine people would be interested. Post pics and details of the brackets here, but don't try to sell them here, you might get banned.

Thanks for the support on these!

So do any brand of the E60 535i rear rotors fit, or does it have to be Zimmerman or Stoptech? I know R1 Concepts sells a drilled/slotted pair for a good price

R1 uses stoptech and they are the same height as Zimmerman 63mm
