for my v12 project i am going to need bigger brake, so to remove the standard 325 convertible brake and put some upgrade m3 brakes is going to be the best, (least cost involved) i know for the front i have to change the disks, calipers, hubs and front shock, ( if theres something ive left out let me know ) the bit i dont kinow it waht do i have to change with regards to the back, :confused
ps will be fitted with aftermarket m3 suspension,:thumbsup

or completey different route, are there some good aftermarket brake upgrades, ie disk, pads etc, that would fit direct to the 325 and give me plenty of stopping power:confused

any pointers would be great:thumbsup

the weight of the v12 over the 2.5 engine is only 16ish kilos, by the time i strip off some bit and fit a carbon bonnet,:thumbsup weight should not be to much of an issue,

saying that, what would i need to fit the e46 brakes:confused

just seen a how guide on another site, (with pics) that e46 330ci brakes are a straight swap for the e36 , all i need is disk capilpers and pads, no need to change the hubs or struts and the stopping power should be alot better
