Up for sale are 2 sets of low mileage, used Porsche 996 Brembo brake calipers. These are commonly used as a brake upgrade on E46 M3s, as a budget friendly BBK solution. There is a wealth of information available regarding this conversion on this forum in the threads below. In short, in addition to these calipers, adapter brackets, brake lines and ZCP front rotors (345x28 mm) will be needed to install these on an E46 M3.

Part numbers:
Front - 996.351.425 ; 996.351.426
Rear - 996.352.421 ; 996.352.422
2 sets of calipers available, they are nearly identical. These calipers are as-removed from a Porsche, so they will need to be reworked before installation on an E46 M3.
At a minimum, the fronts need to be machined 5.5 mm, rear crossover lines need to be flipped. Rear caliper pad pins may need to be ground down slightly with a Dremel/grinder depending on the car. Rally road can machine these calipers 5.5 mm for $50 if you buy their brackets ($100 otherwise). I can flip the rear crossover lines upon request for free. Most will also want to paint/powder coat these before install.
Caliper sets are pictured in order from #1-2. Set #1 has 64k miles. Set #2 has 79k miles.
All calipers are in good working order with no blown seals, torn dust boots or seized pistons. Cosmetically, there is residual brake dust, oxidation and scuffs/scratches throughout as shown, but no major damage to any of the castings.
Both sets of calipers will include a full set of caliper hardware, and front dampeners. Dampeners are usable, but have some pad backing material stuck to them. No pads or sensors included.
Asking $OLD for set #1, $OLDfor set #2, picked up in Fairfax, VA.
Can ship for $50 extra (per set) in the continental USA.
