Turner Motorsport proudly offers the Power Stop Z26 Street Warrior Brake Kit, the ideal solution for BMW enthusiasts seeking rapid, hassle-free, and cost-effective enhancements in braking performance and cooling.

This all-inclusive brake kit comprises the following essential components:

• Drilled and Slotted Rotors
• Extreme Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
• Stainless Steel Hardware
• New Guide-Pin Bushings
• High-Temperature Brake Lubricant

The Power Stop Extreme carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads integrated into this kit have been meticulously engineered to significantly reduce dust generation in comparison to stock pads. These pads deliver high-performance stopping power without compromising everyday drivability and effectively mitigate brake noise, ensuring noise-free stops during every journey.

Furthermore, the rotors have undergone substantial improvements to endure the rigors of performance braking and optimize their lifespan. Precision drilling enhances cooling, while rounded slots on the friction surface facilitate the efficient removal of gas and debris, preserving a clear contact patch for seamless and secure braking. The Silver Zinc Dichromate plating not only bestows an elegant appearance but also acts as a safeguard against rust and corrosion. This plating prevents the development of the typical rust lip and potential weak points, even after extended usage.

Brake pad wear sensor should be replaced at ever brake service, even if not worn down. This ensures the sensor is as new as possible and less likely to fail due to built up corrosion.

Fits the following BMWs:

From years of European automotive experience, the enthusiasts at ECS Tuning have developed a strong understanding of what it takes to produce a high-quality brake pad. After thousands of miles and many different pad compounds, they've landed on the ideal blend for the new DD23 "Daily Driver" brake pad! This enthusiast-developed pad offers confident stopping power, very low dust, quiet braking, and a positive initial bite. The perfect choice for your daily-driven Euro!

If you find yourself “pumping the brakes” over the brake pad selection process for your daily driver, your answer is this DD23 pad. This is the one!

As a team of enthusiasts who own all types of European cars, we have the advantage of the exposure that comes with the enthusiast lifestyle - and have a strong understanding of what makes a great brake pad. In the pursuit of a really great brake pad for daily driving, we’ve tested a wide range of brake pads. After thousands of test miles, iterating through a variety of pad compounds, we’ve landed on the ideal blend for our DD23 Daily Driver ceramic pad.

Features:

Good stopping power - Brake pads need to stop your car, period, so this is key. We focused on selecting a compound that offers a healthy level of friction (both when hot and when cold) for safe, positive stopping power.

Positive initial bite - You should feel your brakes engage as you press the pedal, but it should not feel like an on/off switch! Advanced ceramic composition means you’ll enjoy a smooth transition on and off of the brake pedal, meaning your passengers will have a comfortable ride in stop-and-go traffic. We’ve hit a good balance here.

Very low-dust - Some factory-installed pads are eye-poppingly dusty, which is a no-go for us. Thanks to the composition of this ceramic pad, which is copper-free and contains a negligible amount of other metals, dust is both lighter in color and very limited in amount. We’ve improved on the “dust factor” without sacrificing on bite and stopping power as a good compromise, which will be a win for anyone who doesn’t detail daily (or anyone who does, too!)

Quiet braking - It’s not a race pad, so it shouldn’t squeal like one. Extremely low metallic composition means they will not squeal. DD23 is comfortable and quiet - both on the ears and in lack of vibration transmitted through the cabin.

Long life - This should be an obvious one. Your daily driver pads should last and last, so that was key in selecting our ideal compound. This is another benefit to having ceramic material composition versus a softer organic pad (which have higher metallic and various organic elements) and wear much faster. Ours are kind to rotors, too (no accelerated wear characteristics) for many miles of motoring.

BMW 135i Brembo Caliper Brackets are the perfect upgrade for enhancing your BMW's braking performance. Designed by Reboot Engineering, these brackets allow for the installation of BMW 135i front calipers on non-M E36 and E46 models. With these brackets, you can use larger brake pads, resulting in significantly improved braking power. Constructed from high-quality 6061 aluminum, they offer exceptional durability and come in a sleek black finish, adding a stylish touch to your vehicle’s braking system.

• Enhanced Braking Performance: Supports the installation of larger brake pads for superior stopping power.
• High-Quality Construction: Made from durable 6061 aluminum for long-lasting performance.
• Sleek Appearance: Available in a black finish for a clean, professional look.
• Compatibility: Fits non-M E36 and E46 models with BMW 135i front calipers.
• Custom Fit: Requires minor dust shield modification and is compatible with various rotor sizes.

These pads were originally equipped on the Euro E46 M3 models and the US M3 ZCP, as well as Euro-spec M models from the 1990s. Owners of the E46 M3 will know that the stock pads are already quite 'aggressive' from the factory with a lot of initial bite. The initial bite was built into the pad to stop criticism of BMW's lack of 'performance' brakes. Instead of building the M models with exotic - and expensive - multi-piston calipers, BMW engineers turned up the braking power in their pads. These pads go a step further as the pads that originally came on the Euro E46 M3 and all E46 M3 ZCPs. For the street, these are excellent brake pads with excellent feel and performance. The only downside is the dust that comes from an organic pad. The problem with many aftermarket and OEM pads is that they do not match the same level of initial bite as the stock OE BMW pads. This can make the brakes feel 'weak' and 'numb' even though the pads are working properly. If you want to maintain your braking feel, these are the best to use.

Although these pads were originally designed for M cars, they fit other models as well, making them a great first-step upgrade for better braking.

Price is for one set of pads - enough to replace the pads on both front calipers.
