WTB: Brembo or Stoptech 6 Piston 380mm BBK

[E46M3]

Looking to buy a Brembo or ST 6 piston BBK. Interested in any for rears as well. Thanks in advance

Stoptech 6 piston front sucks-- knockback city. Avoid.

I always remember you saying you've had to rebuild the ST's several times as well.

To the OP - reach out to Epoustouflant who is running a group buy on E9X 380mm front and rear. He offers a bracket for the E46. But you should be aware its still an unknown product amongst membership here. More info:

If for track car only, there are ways to "fix" knockback - via pad springs or swapping the conical washers to make rotors fully floating.

Probably not a track car, given that he’s looking for 380mm rotors.

stoptech’s are kind of crap for track use anyway. Seals need replacing way more often, rotors last 1/2 to 1/3 as long as brembo.

Knockback should not be a problem for cars and coffee then .

On the other end of the spectrum, we have some sessions on west coast (depending which organizer) that run 7 hours straight (with the only break being lunch), where 380 might make sense.

So I'm just providing info.

I don't see people's build summaries or any signatures or other info in tapatalk (vs browsers).
