BMW Brakes & Brake Parts for BMW Z Series E85/6 (2003-2008)

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.

Turner Motorsport has made it easier than ever to get the high-quality upgrade components you need for your next brake service—all in a single, convenient kit. Our performance brake service kit includes premium ECS rotors, ECS EP24 "Enthusiast Performance pads, a wear sensor, assembly grease, and a full set of rotor set screws, ensuring a seamless upgrade process. Expertly assembled for perfect compatibility, this kit is designed to keep your braking system performing at its best.

Kit Includes:

ECS 2-Piece Semi-Floating Cross-Drilled & Slotted Rotors (Front) ECS EP24 "Enthusiast Performance" Brake Pads URO Pad Wear Sensor ECS Stainless Steel Rotor Set Screws AGS Brake Lubricant Compound Packet Upgrade your braking performance with precision-engineered components!

The latest in the Yellow line takes all of the RSL29 characteristics and adds a bit more aggressive behavior. Friction levels go up for more initial bite and better fade resistance. Modulation and release stays close to RSL29 levels. Pad and rotor wear is a little more than on the previous Yellows but still within reasonable levels and the RSL1 is still considered an extended endurance pad. Its development stemming from GT classes at Le Mans and Nürburgring.

Since Pagid pads tend to "out-gas" we recommend using these pads with a new gas-slotted or cross-drilled rotor for the best performance. Pagid brake pads are not compatible with previously used rotors, especially if used with a carbon or Kevlar based race pad.

Pagid's newest sprint racing pad was developed for racing cars achieving very high average speeds with short braking distances and functional aero. The RST pads feature very high friction levels for the quickest bite and highest fade resistance than any other Pagid pad. RST pads are broken into 5 levels and all have ranging bite and release characteristics. RST pads will trade low wear for torque output and faster response. These were developed based on the needs of race engineers in World Challenge, Daytona Prototype, and GTLM where functional aero meant high grip in the corners and smaller braking zones.

RST Brake Pad Types:

• RST1 -  Very high friction coefficient, high initial bite, progressive torque curve, very high fade resistant
• RST2 - Medium high friction coefficient, good initial bite, mild progressive torque curve, good pedal feel
• RST3 - High friction coefficient, good initial bite, low heat conductivity, excellent modulation and release characteristics
• RST4 - Medium friction coefficient, good initial bite, mild progressive torque curve, high heat tolerance with consistent feel
• RST5 - Optimum thermal management, absolutely fluid fade resistant, highly developed recovery properties, extremely high friction coefficient
