BMW Brakes & Brake Parts for BMW Z3 (1996-2002)

Turner has developed a proprietary zinc-nickel coating finish with nearly twice the salt-spray corrosion resistance of a standard plating. Turner SS brake lines also feature new low profile connecting hardware, for a cleaner mounted look. Get the brake lines that will continue to look as good as they feel!

-Fully compliant with DOT Standards (MVSS-1006) -Lines burst-tested to 3000psi (maximum tested pressure from a BMW braking system is 1200psi) -Zinc-Nickel coating for maximum corrosion resistance -Low profile connectors for clean and recessed look

This caliper bushing kit will eliminate flex caused by weak rubber caliper bushings. As the brake pedal is pressed the caliper grabs the rotor and twists on its mounting bushings. The rubber bushings allow the caliper to deflect and twist which affects pedal feel and results in uneven pad wear. These solid brass bushings will not twist or deflect so your calipers can squeeze the pads evenly on both sides of the rotor (sort of like what multi-piston big brakes do). This will give you much longer pad life and a more consistent pedal feel. This is the most complete kit we have ever sold with stainless steel caliper slide bolts, o-rings, and new dust boots. Unlike other kits, these bushings are pressed into the caliper and will not shift or slide on their own.

Installation is straightforward: remove the old rubber bushings and press in the new brass bushings (we recommend special tool 003326ECS03). High temp caliper grease or anti-seize is required. The new bushings include an inner o-ring that helps trap grease on the slide bolt, reducing friction and wear.

For most models with floating calipers. Fits the rear of E90/2 and E60, but for the front you'll need the kit found here. Does not fit E30 models with Girling calipers, but is compatible with Ate calipers. 

Elevate Your Braking Performance with ECS Exact-Fit Brake Lines

Experience a new level of braking confidence and dependability with ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced brake lines. Engineered to provide consistent brake pressure, unmatched durability, and advanced protection against potential failures, these brake lines are your path to a safer and more responsive braking experience.

Key Benefits:

• Enhances braking confidence and dependability
• Resists expansion, ensuring consistent brake pressure
• Provides long-lasting corrosion resistance
• Reinforced with braided stainless steel mesh for superior durability
• Offers a firmer pedal and more direct pedal feel
• Signature red polymer coating for added protection
• Manufactured in compliance with DOT (U.S. Department of Transportation) FMVSS 106 standards
• Each line is rigorously tested to 3000 psi for reliability

Factory-style fabric mesh-lined rubber hoses, even when new, tend to expand under the pressure of hard braking, whether it's sudden stops on the highway or aggressive threshold braking on the track. This expansion becomes more prominent as rubber hoses age and are exposed to various weather conditions. ECS Exact-Fit brake lines are engineered with braided stainless steel mesh for superior resistance to expansion. This resistance results in a firmer pedal and a more direct pedal feel, offering you a confident and responsive braking experience.

The signature red polymer coating not only enhances protection from the elements but also guards against abrasion, which is common due to the constant movement of suspension and braking systems.

The best part? ECS Exact-Fit brake lines are meticulously manufactured to meet DOT (U.S. Department of Transportation) FMVSS 106 standards. Each line is produced on dedicated DOT-compliant brake equipment and undergoes thorough testing at 3000 psi before being shipped to ensure their reliability and quality.

From years of European automotive experience, the enthusiasts at ECS Tuning have developed a strong understanding of what it takes to produce a quality high-performance brake pad. After thousands of miles and many different pad compounds, they've landed on the ideal blend for the new EP24 "Enthusiast Performance" brake pad! If you're looking for a streetable, track-capable, performance brake pad, look no further than the ECS EP24!

Features & Benefits:

Strong stopping power - Increased coefficient of friction offers satisfying stopping power when cold (a necessity for a street pad!) and even more G-force-inducing power when they warm up. With cold and warm friction comparable to Hawk HPS (and higher than many other street pads) the stopping experience with the EP24 pad is impressive for street-driven vehicles on streetable tires. Positive initial bite - Race pads have the reputation of acting like an on/off switch, which is a no-go for a pad for a street application. The EP24 offers OE-level initial bite for low-stress braking in stop-and-go situations. Reasonable dust - Race pads utilize a high metallic composition. Pads that use high amounts of metal not only dust terribly, but also will bake onto wheels with high temperatures and are a bear to clean. This is not the case with these performance street pads. Now using these pads on most of our shop cars, we’ve found over time that dust is comparable to factory pads in most applications (with greatly improved braking performance). Quiet braking - It’s not a race pad, so it shouldn’t squeal like one. While not as quiet as our ceramic DD23 pad, you’ll still be able to drive your spouse to dinner. Long life - This should be an obvious one. Even in a performance pad, your daily driver pads should last and last, so that was key in selecting our ideal compound. This compound wears slower and is kinder to rotors than two of the top competitors.

EP24 "Enthusiast Performance" brake pads are included in our Lifetime Replacement Program for worry-free motoring.
