So approx 160 lbs with a pair of Recaro and shedding the back seats etc. That's some pretty good weight savings.

yeah thats about right. can go nuts also and really strip the interior of all sound deadening, door panels, speakers, and end up down over 200.

had st40's installed on my old e90 M. beat the snot out of them 3x at watkins and 2x at limerock. Not much but I also drove the car daily and was able to go from summer to winter to track wheels without worrying about fitment issues around the calipers. also used the same pads all year and never an issue with the castrol srf fluid. amazing product for the price.
good luck |

I had a chance to switch my Brembo 380mm front and rear to 365mm front 345mm rear. I decided to change it for better 18' wheel clearances.

I think the only difference, may be that the 380/380 will have better heat dissapation and heavier upsprung weight over the smaller 365/345 set up.

I didn't bother with rear brakes calculations as I consider them a cosmetic mod. I couldn't make the same calculations with the stoptech setup because caliper and pads change from the 380 to the 355 kit. Would be nice if someone could replicate my findings. |

My StopTech BBK has arrived!
Does anyone have an estimate of how many hours it should take to install new kit including stainless steel brake lines?

Nice looking brakes! It took me about 3-4 hours for front bbk/ss line install, but I was not trying to rush at all and I had a couple of beers. You could definitely do the whole 4 corner setup in that time if you were more concerned about time. It isn't a difficult install really. Use a level or something to prop the brake pedal half down to minimize fluid leakage during the time when the line is not connected.
I don't really get the thermal capacity argument by some people ITT. Yeah, it isn't an insane difference going 355 to 380. But I don't think anyone on this forum could feel the few pounds extra sprung weight. So it is really just a wheel issue, and many 18's fit ST 380. Obviously OP agreed since you got the 380! |

Thanks! I'm pairing them with StopTech's new SR34 race pads.
