- Rear kit now available at www.seemslegit...
Check out how to swap some serious brakes into your 135i or 335i for wayyyy less moolah than a Stoptech trophy kit. Our brackets allow you to mount the awesome Brembo calipers and two piece rotors from the F80/F82 M3/M4 onto any non-m 1 or 3 series. The calipers work awesome with stock rear brakes, and we have kits swap the rears coming soon. No more brake fade at the track!

I got the brackets last night and it looks awesome.
TY for posting! I wasn't gonna sweat the brakes but I was just at buttonwillow with a friend of mine during the GTA nationals and I now feel the need for better brakes on my E90N54. The stock brakes are good enough for every day road stuff and very occasional HPDE use at moderate speeds with better pads, but will fade and be useless in 3 laps of spirited use. And the kits from ECS are like $6K.. so screw that. The SLG crew does it again. But, I want to see the E9x rear axle DIY because it's not as neanderthal simple as the front brake retrofit. Watch me.. #projectweltspeed #weltspeed
Coming soon!
@@SeemsLegitGarage I think you’re my favorite hi perf shop! Thank you again for what you guys do! (And for being humble, friendly, patient with your customers, and motorsports enthusiasts)
This is awesome, gonna have to look at this kit instead of the usual upgraded pads and rotors
To help others to avoid this issue, I got this kit for the 135i, all fits good but it will not fit with the 18in Apex Arc8 wheels (f8x brake calipers touch the barrel). You'll need wheels that have a larger diameter barrel that can fit bbk with 380mm rotors.
We tested this and they fit with some slim spacers no problem
@@SeemsLegitGarage The spokes fit with a small spacer but the caliper hits slightly on the barrel putting grooves in them. I tripled checked the calipers and brackets, pushed them all the way in and same issue. Unless I get rocks jammed in there causing the grooves.
I installed the Apex ec-7 wheels today and they clear way more.
@@SeemsLegitGarage By the way did you guys do any coding at all for the brakes? I have access to istaD/P for programming/coding but I couldn't find anything? With protool I was able to disable some dsc nannies...
@@in54ne82 no codes come up from the swap
@@in54ne82 we like to remove the panic stop thing and nannies for any track car
You guys need to make the brackets for the e46 M3 for these calipers in the rear. Already got the fronts on just don’t want to cut the rear calipers up with what’s currently available at the moment.
Seems legit!
Ya know
It would be awesome if someone could build a list of OEM wheels that work with this retrofit. Anyone running this with M193 18”?
It would be nice to have but honestly right now I just look for OEM wheels that people have put on the F8X. There are so many OEM options to test
I have a 2013 335is convertible do I need to change rear hub to fit calipers?
Yes either 135i hubs or E9x M3 knuckles and hubs
Will you be doing a rear brake install video? I am going to be doing this conversion front and rear. Hoping the rear will be as simple as the front? I see you are using StopTech rotors. This kit will work with OEM f80 rotors as well?
Hi, yes the rear is just the same, we will try to do a video soon! And yes oem or aftermarket f80 rotors work. Check out the tech articles page on our website for part numbers :)
Hey guys is there any type of adapter for these front calipers on the E92 m3? Trying to see if I can avoid buying new knuckles to run the m4 brakes lol.
Soo this will NOT work on the e92 m3?
So whats the weight difference of the calipers?
What wheel studs are those?
Motorsport Hardware
Did you keep the stock E8X Dust guard / Heat shield for the back of the rotor when using the F8X brake setup?
Im about to buy and do this retrofit but im just wondering about the brake shields behind. Would they also be plug and play with the F8X setup to the E82 or?
yes we do
Why not sell upgraded steel/aluminum pistons for the OEM 135i caliper.
Because f80 rotors and calipers have much more heat capacity so they preform much better on track. The 135i system overheats easily even with piston upgrades, which we had previously
@@SeemsLegitGarage I got upgraded pistons and ECS tuning 2 piece rotor. I love my setup. Love what you guy are doin though, I can dig it!
make an adapter for an E46 m3 !!!
Working on it!
What does it take to get the matching rears to fit, too? E90.
@@aggieE46 we will have adapters eventually for that as well :)
So do you guys have a fitting kit for e90 M3s that allows the use of the M3 /4 callipers or the BiG Sport Brakes
We looked into it, but due to knuckle design its not possible to do safely. I would swap to f80 knuckles if you have a M
Would this work on a e92 328xi ? Looking to only do the front with the same calipers from F8X ? Or is this only for 335/135? just want to confirm before i buy!
Yes it works the same on that
Has the rear adapters come out yet??
yes
Hi. I have a question. I'm on an E82 1M. Looking to implant the F80 M3 genuine brake into my car. Is it possible to transplant it if I just buy the bracket without changing other parts?
That car has M3 front knuckles. I you change to non-m knuckles you cuse the bracket, or change to F80 knuckle and use a shock adapter to fit the brakes. We soon will have a brake kit for G80 brake mounts as well.
@@SeemsLegitGarage Thank you for your answer. Is it impossible without a knuckle change at the moment?
@@Pin_Uup It is impossible forever, the knuckle design and rotor offset make it not possible.
Hey guys, good job! Is there an upgrade for the rear brakes in the works at all?
yes :)
@@SeemsLegitGarage good to hear! I gotta really good deal on a set of front/rear calipers, so I'll grab both set once the rears are ready for sale!

Is red loctite recommended or can you use blue?
when in doubt red
Do you know if this will work with 325i e93 (N52B25)?
yes it will
Upgraded brake booster needed?
no
Would the old 135i calipers be for sale?
Sorry already sold
Will this work for a 2011 BMW 335d?
yes
Does it work on a non M e92?
Yes
yes
When will you release the rear brake kit for 335i???
335i is not possible to do safely we found out. Instead you must use a m3 knuckle and like 4mm spacer we will have shortly.
@@SeemsLegitGarage You mean its not safe to install rear 2pot caliper with 345x24 rotor???
@@user-ir5te3uk6m it doesn’t fit properly
@@user-ir5te3uk6m yes
Can you use oem f m3/m4 roters on e82?
Yes, works all the same
Found used callipers front 380x30 but rear 370x24 in you description it stand 370x22 rear dose it work on e82 370x24mm rear?
Will this work on a 335is
Yes
@@SeemsLegitGarage awesome im gonna have to save up for these
These work with 18” wheels ?
Yes. The wheels you see are 18”s
@@SeemsLegitGarage what makes this not fit e9x M3 ?
@@JuanGarcia-gk1vp The knuckle casting
@@SeemsLegitGarage not interested in making a few adapter plates for M3 ?
@@JuanGarcia-gk1vp we tried, not possible. Swap to F8x knuckle
