Wanted Z3 2.8 brake pad carriers

[Simon Dean]

hi
Looking to upgrade my z3 1.9 brakes to 286 MM vented discs.
So require 2 pad carriers off a 2.8 to fit 286mm discs .
Or 3.0 carriers for 300mm discs.
Thanks
Simon

@Simon Dean You can use E46 325 sport callipers and carriers to upgrade your brakes to 300mm. What you will also have to do is run a min of 17" alloys are the clearance need to fit the larger discs means that the 16" will not have enough room. You will also have to check that the pistons will not upset your brake balance. I am not sure what size calliper pistons are fitted to the 1.9's

Good luck and hope you find what you are looking for.

I have 1 x 286mm carrier if you need it you can have it for £10? ... if you see my other link I found a good deal on pads(brembo UV coated discs £44) and discs and refurbished callipers at £42.50..

Someone posted they had 3 litre brakes for £145 here but it seems to have disappeared.

Whoever it was I have managed to find the discs and calipers but would you sell just
the carriers?
