Can you buy Brembo calipers to fit the M3 rotors?

^^^ I was thinking of completely changing the fronts, and just getting calipers for the back...possible?

I think that Rotora will come up soon with some caliper kit for the E9x M3 stock rotors as they did for the E46 M3.

any updates for this? just curious

We are in the process of developing this already. The hardest parts are to use the right size calipers for front and rear and to CAD design the caliper adaptors since the car is normally has a standard caliper mount and has to be converted to radial mount.

E9x M3 Rotors are good rotors, the calipers are the problem.

I would love to hear more about this in the future as you develop it.

Do any companies make calipers that would just replace the OEM ones (AP/stoptech/Brembo)? Id be very interested.

No. Rotora makes a caliper kit for the 335, but our hub assemblies and knuckles are entirely different.

It's true our car has the same calipers as the 335's, but they are further our to compensate for the larger rotor, and are mounted lower on the brake axis in an effort to lower the center of gravity as much as possible.

Here is a picture that clearly demonstrates what i am referring to.

Thanks for the explanation

I can get you a complete E90 Brembo rear kit for $2950.
