Do you have a link to them? I can only find 380mm fronts when I search. Looking to go with OEM sizing for the time being.

Seems like deleting it and all associated components will shed a substantial amount of weight.

This will affect cold starts I presume (less loud firing process)? Anything else to be expected doing this?
Following up...any of you guys do this?

See this thread.
https://www.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=28008378
I’m in the middle of this now. Removed charcoal cannister, secondary air pump, associated hoses and EGR valves and plugged the holes on the back of the engine with the plates from NRW Design. Just received hoses yesterday and a discriminator valve to build a new tank vent routing. I have an Epic tune to code out the CEL.

One unresolved question for me is what to do with the hose that runs from the charcoal cannister to the idle control valve on top of the engine (beneath the wiring harness). Do I plug it? That’s what I’ve done and car seems to run fine, but I’m only able to test drive it up and down my driveway.

Changed up the rear diffuser. I lowered it a couple inches and now the exhaust comes out above it instead of through it. Also changed my setup for mounting the back of it.

Ignore the damaged rear bumper and terrible wrap. I have a spare but dont have the time to swap it and rewrap it right now [...]
Would love more info on the rear diffuser

Its just a DIY build, nothing special. What would you like to know?

Old setup had the exhaust going through it, just kind of figuring it out as I go. The diffuser took some damage from racing so I had to rebuild my rear mounts. Decided at the same time to change it up some, lower it and bring the exhaust out above the diffuser.

The entire diffuser is 6' long and goes a good bit past the rear diff. I also run a diff cooler since I am not getting any airflow to the diff now

New setup, you can see how much shorter the strakes are so I can reduce the angle of the diffuser.

This was before finishing things up but this is the front half under the car before I added 1" strakes to this piece (which have no been mostly ground down flat lol)

This is a great DIY right up. Thanks for sharing the detail. I’m going to tackle a diffuser sometime this summer and am just gathering details on how to do so

I've heard good things about Girodisc, but it doesn't appear they make rears to match. Turner appears to have fronts and rears, but I haven't heard much about them.

Currently running stock calipers and rotors F/R, stainless lines, Endless ME20 pads, and SRF fluid for reference. I attend 8-10 track days per year and will be upgrading to a front BBK at some point later this year, but that just isn't in the cards at this exact moment.

Like omgzirra_exe said, there is paragon rear rotors. I run their front rotors with AP 9660 calipers with no issues so far. I have friends who also replaced their AP Racing J hooks with replacement rings from them without any major issues that I know of.

I'm currently running stock rear caliper/rotor with pad swaps. I haven't seen a need to replace the rotors with upgraded ones but I definitely would be exploring the Paragon rears in the future when the time comes.
