Dinan/brembo Gt Kit Instruction Manual?

Does anyone have a manual for the Brembo GT kit that could send email me a copy? My Z4M came with Dinan Brembo GT BBK front (6 piston) and rear (4 piston). Not sure what size they are but I need to figure out what is going on with rotors. After a few HPDEs over the past two years, the little connecting bolts that hold the rotors to the hats are coming loose on all four corners. Just looking for a torque specification or something so I can fix them before tracking the car again.

Thanks

I don't know about the Brembos, but Wilwoods require the rotors be safety wired to the hats.

Might wanna just call Dinan vs waiting for someone who might own one of these kits.

Are they really coming loose or appear to be loose? Every other bolt is supposed to feel loose to allow for heat expansion. They are sometimes called McClaren bolts. You should contact Brembo or Dinan direct.

Ah, that makes sense. I was wondering why it was only every other one that was loose (feels loose because you can move it around). Thanks for the quick info!

Correct, every other fastner will feel loose because of the nature of the hardware.

Here's a good diagram that shows how the hardware comes together:
