The e70 X5 uses the same electronic ebrake mechanism but we have successfully installed a full front/rear Brembo BBK setup onto the vehicle.

The only issue now is which rear bbk will fit the Z4 rear brakes. Tried reverse lookup to see if any of the Z4 rear brake components are used in existing BMW models, no luck.

Hope this help clarifies things a little.
Any new update on the rear bkk Lewis?
