Might not be worth trying. Especially with those disc prices! However, cars like the Audi TT RS is (or can be) delivered with CCB front and steel rear brakes. |

I was told by BSI upgrades on Facebook that to install F8x M brakes would only require adapters that cost only 240$. Is this true? Another company VYS garage said I would need F8x hubs and rotors. BSI upgrades doesn't send large packages because their overseas, but if they did they say I just need the adapters with the calipers and I'd be good to go. I hate e9x calipers, for some reason I just need my calipers to be a nice shiny red or blue if that's what's easier to get at the time. [IMG][/IMG]

I was not sure if this is one of the good ones, adjacent ones or at least not worse in terms of capability. Thank you for the resources, I appreciate it. |

Would like to get some opinions on this kit - https://jqwerks.square.site/product/...&category_id=2
I did some quick calculations and it seems that it throws brake bias WAYYY off (18z more so than 17z), but I’d like to hear other chime in |

Personally I'd rather get a used BBK from classifieds here for $4K that was purposely built for this platform than something that was pulled off a wrecked porsche and "rebuilt" by someone I've never heard of. |

These adaptors won't fit with the Maserati 6 pot calipers. We have designed the adaptors, if you order these and add in the notes they're for the Maserati Ghibli we can supply the correct adaptors.

Stock M3 piston area front 60mm - 2826mm2
VW Touarege Brembo BM5 46mm/46mm pistons - 3322mm2 That is going to throw the brake bias a decent amount forward. 66.7% front bias vs 63% stock Previously someone said the AMG C63 calipers would give these results: "The larger piston area of the W204 C63 Brembo caliper will give you slightly longer pedal travel and a slightly softer pedal, however will provide greater clamping force." So the BM5 calipers would probably give a longer pedal travel, even softer pedal but provide greater clamping force than the C63 amg setup.

Yes sounds like you had air in the system at first, but I think that means overall because of the larger piston area and the need to push more fluid, the result is a softer pedal compared to stock.
