-The scrub area on the pad is great on the rotor.
-Brake pedal feel is still up in the air. Feels about the same as stock right now.

I had no issues with the stock e92 dust Shields and the F30 caliper/rotor.

Its not really an issue. Im just saying they touch slightly and can make lining up the bolts harder.

I didn't have any issues :

Maybe someone has bent the shield before for some reason?
The only issue is the stock shields are a tiny bit smaller than the 370mm discs.

This would not work on 3-series as rotors are 10mm shallower.

Could you use 135i hubs and discs then ?

1-series hub and 3 or 5-series rotor but you will need to modify the hub (mill it 2-3mm) or add spacer and off set the parking brake plate. If you look at the photos from above link you will see the parking brake shoe being exposed. Not really cost effective. Most likely you will need to replace the bearings too as they got damaged in the process.

Looks like another option. But if i was going to get callipers machined to make them radial mount id just thin the tabs and be done with it.
What do they cost do you know

Super expensive - they want $500 for the machining and the brackets

I'm not sure if is the same company that move to Illinois, they work together or they just re-sell for mark up. Brackets says EOS (Evolution of Speed). Maybe you could reach out to Rally Road directly? https://www.rallyroad.net/collections/brakes

I want to ask a question:
but are the Fx-series calipers both the Msport (x 340) and the MPerformance (370) models the same?

I have measured them seem to have the same size

[juld0zer]

No, the mounting holes are further from the caliper pistons on the 370mm version to fit the bigger disc

thanks

[Kosmic]

wow...
to the first... sorry for my bad english.

Your us-guys are crazy... In Germany there would be 10 years jail for the rear brake conversions

I drive this brake now 3 years with no problems.....( no racetrack )

the 370mm front brake is p&p... only change, steel-flex brake-lines, redstuff brake pads from EBC and Protection plates.

the 345mm rear brake you need: rotors from Ultimot and Eccentric bushes M10 for the caliper ( you can do this made by self ).
also i change steel-flex brake-lines and brake-pads ( redstuff ).

And for a normal break pedal you are coding the Sportbrake from E9x.

Thats all... so i hope this help you guys...

why don't i see the image of Kosmic ?

can you explain well what do you have to do to fix the rear brake?

You need:

Brakediscs (Pic.2) from www.Ultimot.de, Order-Nr. 34216763827 as BS393SP.
Price is +/- 240.-€ ( you can change the language in the upper left corner )

4x Eccentric bushes M10 with 2,5mm offset (Pic.3) Price is +/- 80.-€

Press the M12 bushes out and press the M10 eccentric bushes in the right position in. (Pic.4)

4x Bolts M10x30mm in 10.9 (Old one is to short) Price is +/- 10.-€

Thats all you need :thump:

!!! When the position from the caliper is not correct, you must the fixing holes from the wheel carrier 1-2mm expand in the direction of travel.
