Packaged by Turner BMW Brakes & Brake Parts for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

135/BMW Performance brakes for your E36 and E46! This kit uses the factory BMW Performance Brembo 6-piston calipers (same as 135i) with E46 330-sized rotors (325x25mm / 12.8") for a bolt on braking upgrade. Everything comes complete - 6-piston calipers, rotors, custom caliper bracket, brake lines, and a pad sensor. Choose your preferred brake fluid and brake pads below (or call us for a recommendation).

Brake rotor options -

• OEM Pagid Coated - blank rotors with anti-corrosion coating
• Turner/Centric cross-drilled
• Turner/Centric slotted
• Turner/Cetnric cross-drilled & slotted
• BMW Peformance floating and cross-drilled
• ECS 2-piece floating with cross-drilled and slotted

Brake pad options -

• OEM Textar (same as stock 135i)
• Centric Posi-Quiet - nearly dust-free (Turner preferred!)
• Hawk Ceramic nearly dust-free
• Hawk HPS performance
• StopTech performance

This is a direct fit to all E36 and E46 (not E46 M3) and comes with a lot more braking power than standard (especially on non-M E36). Consequently there will be more front brake bias - the front brakes have more bite than before. During normal street driving all you will notice is that the brakes feel stronger. For track driving we recommend a more aggressive rear pad to balance the brake bias or a StopTech or Brembo big brake kit that has been properly engineered for the chassis (not a retrofit).

Requires 17" wheels and wheel spacers may be required depending on wheel spoke design. E46 Style 68 wheels shown are used with 5mm spacer.

Upgrade your BMW's braking performance with the ECS Big Brake Kit, designed to deliver enhanced stopping power and reduced brake fade. This comprehensive kit includes 6-piston calipers from the E82, E88, and the E9X BMW Performance big brake kit, along with original equipment pads for optimal braking efficiency. The package also incorporates 325x25 ECS 2-piece rotors, ECS caliper brackets, Exact Fit braided stainless reinforced brake lines, essential hardware, and one liter of Pentosin Super DOT4 Brake Fluid.

Key Benefits:

• Enhanced braking performance with reduced brake fade
• Includes 6-piston calipers and original equipment pads for improved efficiency
• Incorporates ECS 2-piece rotors and caliper brackets for better functionality
• Exact Fit braided stainless reinforced brake lines for durability
• Comprehensive hardware and Pentosin Super DOT4 Brake Fluid included

The ECS Big Brake Kit ensures that brake bias remains stable, making it suitable for various applications. For track use, consider pairing with a more aggressive rear pad. These calipers are compatible with most 17” wheels; however, please refer to the attached template for fitment verification. Additionally, follow the attached installation guide for replacing the OEM caliper carrier with the ECS caliper carrier.

When replacing your worn out brakes, the market is flooded with performance options. If your BMW doesn't see track time, it's not very practical. Performance pads and rotors tend to result in a lack of bite at low braking temperatures and cause excessive noise in daily driven vehicles that becomes irritating. BMW brakes from the factory are perfectly suited for trips around town, across the country, and even the occasional spirited driving session, delivering smooth, quiet, and long lasting performance. 

Included in this E46 BMW brake package are all of the OEM equivalent components needed to replace your Front and Rear brakes with comfort, reliability, and optimal lifespan in mind.

Brake components in this kit:

• Textar Front & Rear Brake Pads
• Zimmerman Front & Rear Rotors

Our brake package uses the same replacement parts from the same manufacturers as BMW dealers use to service your car. The big difference is that we're able to offer these parts for a substantial savings from the dealer markup price. As an independent company we're able to buy our parts from multiple OEM suppliers whereas BMW dealers must buy their parts from BMW. We're able to shop from different vendors which gets you a better price while still maintaining original quality. You don't have to pay high prices at the dealer to get the same quality and performance.

In some cases, we offer performance alternatives to the OEM items. For an enthusiastic BMW owner, the standard BMW part may be inadequate and we offer an upgraded part, based on our 20+ years of BMW tuning experience. We seek out high quality suppliers and designs that we would want on our own vehicles. Many times performance parts will fix a design flaw with the original BMW part, improving your performance at the same time.
