AP Racing Big Brake Kit 370mm Front and 360mm Rear - Price DROP

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
Sold

Location:
✓ Will Ship

Item Interest
Update: Brakes are off of the car and in boxes ready to ship!

Better than Brembo or StopTech. THIS IS THE ULTIMATE BBK
Why? It starts with the calipers. AP Racing's calipers flex less than Brembo and Stoptech and brake fluid stay cooler for the most consistent operation. Every. Single. Time. Period. The rotors are not only the thickest available at 36mm up front but are also a floating 2-piece design that uses the J-Hook discs. People who start with Brembo and StopTech kits graduate to these.

Photos below but more can be seen here: Flickr: AP Racing BBK

For sale is a full AP Racing big brake kit was installed on my car over the summer but have sold my F30 so I no longer have a need for these, unfortunately. If you want the BEST brakes available for your car then these are what you want. Forget Brembo and StopTech. Look closely at the Radi-Cal caliper and talk to a professional and you'll see why it's king. Calipers aside, up front you get two piece 370x36mm rotors with the J-Hook groove for maximum thermal capacity. I will include everything that comes in the kit including stainless brake lines however you'll need to supply your own brake fluid.

Included will be original boxes with everything needed to do the install except brake fluid and new crush washers. This full (front and rear) setup will fit many 2, 3 and 4 series and the front brakes will fit some other cars including the M235i. You'll want to check the application guide below.

Front Kit: Part number APR64200
Rear Kit: Part number APR64700

Application Guide: http://apradical.stillen.com/big-brake-kit-applications

Local pickup from Northern Virginia preferred but will ship at buyer's expense. Thanks for looking!

-Josh

So, this front kit also fits xDrive cars BUT the rear brakes are RWD specific. That said, install different hubs on the rotors to make this fit AWD cars and others. The caliper should then be a matter of getting the correct bracket from Stillen. I'd call them and ask about it.

XDrive or RWD has Zero difference in the rear. The difference is in the front. There is difference between rear parking brakes on 4cyl and 6cyl f3x non M cars. So this kit will fit any e8x, e9x and f3x non M models on the front. The rear unfortunately will fit only 4cyl f3x non M cars.

Maybe if you happen to have an automatic 6cyl F30 and dont really care about not having a parking brake than this could work? Lol

Just a thought. I dont even own a F30. I have an E92 335i 6MT RWD.

Feur, i know from previous experience that you know your shit.. You think my brake pedal feel would be bad with say these front 6piston calipers and stock 3355i rear single piston floating calipers?

Also I heard when people go with the whole oem F30 M-sport 370mm brembo brakes; front 4piston brembos & 2piston? Rear Brembos that the pedal feel is reallyyy bad. Some people have been experimenting with E90 M3 master cylinders... Has there been a 100% legit solution to that problem? F30 M-Sport master cylinder? F80 M3 master cylinder?

Anyway, good luck with sale. These brakes would look soo sick on a White or Black car. Any color really for that matter, lol.

Cant believe these havent sold yet!!!

I've 2008 335i e90.
I'm the first who installed full front&rear F30 brakes with e9x M3 brake cylinder.
Without the M3 cylinder brakes do feel bed.
If you keep rearcaliper stock pedal feel is OK.
F-chassis brake master cylinder will not work on E-chassis
These rear rotors will not fit e9x 330i and 335i, it can go only on 328, 325, 320, 318 and 316.

Yes they should. Stillen has templates for these brake kits that you can print and cut out and hold up to the back of the wheel to confirm clearance. That said, I ran 18x8.5" ET40 Volk LE37's and your wheels appear to have more clearance than those.
