- When you think you know every upgrade possible for your car and then a company throws a curveball at you. Well, that is exactly what happened to me recently. Maybe I am just late to the game but when I found out you can retrofit F80/F82 brakes onto my basic BMW 335i, I was shocked. Brake upgrades have to be one of the most underrated upgrades you can do to your BMW, yet they can really enhance the driving experience and keep you safe! In today's video I will share what I learned about the Big Brake Kit retrofit and show you how easy you can replicate what I did with your build. This works for pretty much every e8X or E9X BMW model.

For anyone interested in this brake installation READ THIS!
IMO its simply not worth the headache trying to mount 370mm in the rear. Based on the research ive done youd be better off just mounting 345mm e60 discs with eccentric bushings instead of 370mm discs its a direct bolt on and will work great! If youre dead set on mounting 370mm rotors then: 1. Im pretty sure you either have to do some serious hub carrier grinding, and youve gotta have a custom bracket set (not from SLG, youd have to fabricate your own) 2. The second option is to swap the hubs from a 135i or the knuckles from an m3, both of which are still not great options as im almost sure the handbrake would be mouth-functioning, hard to install, and or simply just not working with the f8x rotors. Ive seen it done but i have yet to receive any info about the specs. So dont quote me. Im going with the 345mm e60 route, and 370mm rotors in the front (direct bolt on). Im also going to just order a used pair of calipers off ebay then sandblast and re-powder coat them, its the cheapest option. If you really want to go budget you can buy used discs and pads off eBay which is also a great option. But id recommend buying new brake lines regardless of any scenario and definitely dont recommend buying a brand new set of calipers, its simply just too expensive.
So to sum things up, (Front)
-(cheapest) if you want to go the 340mm front disk route (8mm smaller than stock) its a direct bolt on to the car. All u need is 340mm calipers, and 340mm disks.
-if you want to mount 370 in the front all you need to do make sure you buy the 370/380mm Caliper set (its direct bolt on)
-(most expensive) if you want to go the 380 in the front route you will need the brackets from SLG and a set of 370/380mm calipers
For the rear:
If you want to go the 345mm e60 route you will need eccentric bushings, calipers, and rotors.
If you want to go the 370 route youll need to do some research, but hopefully youll have luck on your side!

awesome , appreciate that info
the color of that e36 in the back is beautiful
It's wild seeing that parking lot not littered with Adams cars everywhere
Research goes a long way. There’s a plethora of information on the forums that would’ve helped you during your brake conversion ie eccentric bushings to get the rear calipers to sit on the hub properly (for less than $100) as well as an e9x m3 master cylinder that is required to prevent a spongy brake pedals after the rear calipers installed. Research research research
Bro, you know this cat. He’s a guy that likes to show off his build, when reality all he does is lift up his pen for the checkbook.
The real MVP is it mechanics that put up with him bouncing around with the camera..
Just bought myself a low mileage 07 335i coupe at only 58000km or think its 36039 miles, I'm thinking about doing all the gaskets before I do full bolt on, but your videos have been very informative for me and have showen me what I should do, thanks!
I feel better now that you are addressing the brakes. The new ones look great!
Will those wheels accept bmw center caps? That small detail would make it next level! Sick build
I’ve been waiting for this!!!! Sickkkk🔥
Fitment is perfect😍 the way those rims clear that big brembo style brake kit👀
This video was very helpful... Been eyeing this kit and trying to fit on my E91. Tempting, very tempting...
This unboxing lit 🔥.. I like when Chris says queue the " this is awesome" music🎶.. epic🍻
Loving this bro ‼️‼️
Been waiting for this.... I need this pham appreciate the help 🙏
I got you!
Love it, need to do brakes on my 335xi right away and was thinking of upgrading the calipers and lines as well. Going to do this.
Definitely will be a safer ride now that you can stop all those horses from running away with you. Lol. A great "Orange" colored video with tips for finding the right sizes and fitment for your setup. Thanks Cristian for another wonderful video and stay safe Brother! Best wishes and Peace out!
The colors look great!
You can buy a m3 e90/92 hub carrier, the m3/m4 setup (rotors and calipers) will fit plug and play.
There is another option too, e60 550i rotors + m3/m4 calipers, but you need an adapter for that.
Looks so good
Looks great🔥
Nice i have the same set up on my f30 with the ecs braided lines
I have the same setup on my F30 335i with upgraded SS brake lines. I ended up getting rid of the stock blue and powder-coated them red.
dear lord thats a wicked upgrade!!! Want it! maybe upgrade the master break cylinder?
Looking good cuz keep up the good work
Important : The bigger brakes have to be coded in via INPA so the Abs and DSC work flawlessly
The fitment is fire Cristian 🔥
Thanks dude!
love the eel painted on the wall of the shop
Nice video thanks. A bit sad you did not make a video on how to get those wide tires to not rub. How is the suspension setting now? As stiff as it can be? :-)
What can I say? Simply can’t go wrong with orange. Looks great with the blue. Been eyeballing a big brake kit for my e46 myself & this isn’t helping my restraint. 😅
Sorry bro can’t do orange and blue. It’s Broncos colors. At the San Diego and a casual Chargers fan. I just can’t have it lol.
Hey man, sweet ride! I've been wanting to do the same thing to my F30 335xi. What size wheels do you have? Wondering if the stock F30 M group 18" wheels and E46 M3 18" wheels (I have a set of both) will clear those large calipers? Thanks!
That looks sick, I hope you will be able to fit the f80 rotors in the rear too
The stickers on the tyres are stressing me out 😂 brakes look great man
*tires
@@mrpsd590 in English English they're tyres, douche
That looks 🔥
The brakes look great! Also why no BMW hubcabs for the wheels? I have aftermarket wheels and the hubcaps they came with were very odd and I couldn't find any BMW hubcaps of that size. I went on Etsy and had someone make me custom hubcaps, only cost me 20 and it looks a little better now, I'd recommend doing the same if that's the issue or if you're looking to do that
you will never go wrong with orange. I went for the same. Very happy with the look and performance. More aggressive with 6 pistons in front and 4 pistons in the rear
Where can i get those brackets?
@@christianarias1538 what bracket? I have links and everything on my videos. If info missing, tag me on any of the BBK videos.
Beautiful car!
Thats a really tight fit damn
lol that fitment is really tight, what if you need to put weights on the hub for balancing?
Damn those look great!!
They look great. I have the regular 4 piston brembo 340 mm caliper on my e90. They are straight bolt on. And it looks great. For anyone trying to do 340 instead of 380.
I did 370mm rotors up front. Direct swap with f80 calipers.
Did you have to code anything?
I'm swaping my e81 130i fronts for the 4 Piston f20 340mm brakes. Something about the ABS or brake pressure needs coding, right?
I didn't do any coding. They are a direct swap. They fit just like the original one. At least on the e90. Not sure of e81/82
@@justinrobert6573 which adapter bracket did you use to fit the 370/380 mm rotor?
What are you using in the rear?
How did u get the rear calipers to fit do u have a link for front and rear brackets mate
Some how you always manage to post content for e9x that would seem impossible to do because of your videos I was able to see a different route to mod my e92 👍
You for sure managed to get it on an e92 coupe? How’d you do it?
Hi, i have a bmw 135i and i would like to do the same retrofit, Do you have any news of the brackets of the rear ?
Definitely won’t be drag racing this week be either. Should have kept the back brakes stop for 15” setup in rear.
Did you do the rear calipers install? I have a 335is and want to do the same upgrade
Have you done the rear calipers yet? Still cant find a something that helps mount onto e9x rear bracket
Did the dustshield not fit? What was the issue of you don't mind explaining. Thank you
thanks for giving us the sauce
Sheeeesh I know what else I'll be ordering
I’m sitting in the lobby @psi watching your videos/vlogs..
Like I dont understand who dislikes these video's. These videos are very informative an interesting, I mean it's proof you don't have to buy a Super expensive car if you just choose to work with what you have..... an in away it makes people wanna go out buy 335i's just so they can have something unique. So yall come here watch an dislike why? Just watch something else then an let this brother do he's thing for all the interested people. The guy is happy let him be. Hell I only want a 335i coz of all he's videos. KEEP DOING YOUR THING VEHICLE VIRALS.
👊🏼
@@VehicleVirals I'm saving up to buy a 335i an I wanna make mine as vicious an menacing as yours bro just you wait.
I did this to a 2011 Bmw E90 335i and I did the fronts with no adapters or anything it bolts right on even the brake lines work with it
nice vid bro
What did u do for the the calipers in the back
What calipers did you use
Did you ever get the rear calipers fitted?
Seen these fit a e46 m3 as well
I have a 335is, will my factory 19s work with this set up? Any mods for the sensors too?
Any ideas if this fits the e90 M3 ??
Hey would this fit my 06 330 4 door and how do it get the rear to fit
damn , looks so good
I have the same brakes but mine bolted right up without any brackets in the front unless they're a smaller calipers but they look the same 🤔
I like this :)
Right there at 9:03, did you say you are spanish? Where are you from?
I did not find the rear break video update, have you made it yet?
Nice info you have here.
whats the size of your rims? and tires specs as well
Kindly advise the size of the wheel and tyre
Updates on the rears?
Can we have a libk from where can buy that adaptor? Plese?
Does the f80/82 calipers same as f30 m performance calipers? Thank you!
Could you put these brakes on a E85 Z4
Nice video
Hey man, quick question your car isn't 700hp but is the 700hp on the high end or on the low end. Just curious as most of these high horsepower "cheap/affordable" builds have high horsepower on the high end
Which bracket was used to fit the 370/380 mm rotor the M sport bracket?
I have a 650i gran coupe and I’m thinking about upgrading to 6 piston front and 4 piston rear but was told that they would be a little noisy is that true? Please let me know thanks, My name is Drew
Does psi work on AMG?
Did you do the rears yet
Ouuhh I need to see the rear upgrade.
Bro fuck yeah your content always 🔥🔥
Is the M logo backwards on the driver side?
Anyone: sorry but the callipers may not fit on your car
Christian: go big or go home
Hahahaa i love you content bro
Could you do this in a e90 m3?
Hi
I just bought rear calipers blue from a 2016 m3
They say p244
Can I use 2016 f80/m3 rear calipers on my
2018 340
I 19inch rims.
The f80 M3 calipers had 370mm rotors in the rear original with the m3 car.
The stamp says p244 I’ve seen p240 on other research with m performance package
The 44 is a bigger piston same size as the m performance
Can I use the 345mm rotor on the p244 blue caliper
I know they originally came with the M3 and 370 rotors
My big question is
Can I use the calipers I bought and just use the 345mm rotors
I have the MPBBK on my F30. They're noisy. The ticking sound reflecting back to me when I pass wall or other cars is annoying. I'd love to swap them for F80 rotors. I find yes and no answers all over the web.
I click your video, i like your video, i watch your video. 🤙
How do I get some of these.
Looks awesome bro! Hey what do you do for a living besides CZcams?
Only CZcams.
Will this work on a f31 WAGO LIFE
What rims are on the car
The brake rotors have a R and L lmao... either way great video 👍
Ftlb lbft its order doesn’t matter as the resultant force is the same due to the nature of multiplication
Same process for the M3??
I really wanna send my car to that shop in Florida.
I put the whole front hub/knuckle assembly from an f82 on my e92
Them breaks look great. Hope you can finish the rear ones soon. Question I have. Why you didn’t go with the 6 and 4 pistons calipers out of the E82 135i M Sport. I think they are the same as the E9X M3s. Just curious!!
They don't preform as well as this option.
e9x M3 does not use the same brakes as the six piston 135i. e9x M3 use a sliding caliper design.
@@VehicleVirals Ok. I recently replaced my pads and rotors with EBC Red Stuff and Slotted rotors, and the difference is huge.
@@ModMINI Thanks for your clarification.
What rotors did you go with? I am doing my 335D also known as my M3d😂. I got M3 rear wheel hubs off eBay for a great price now just looking for the upgraded rotor you picked up
F80 rotors. 380mm front and I think 370mm rear
Broo🔥🔥🤙🏽🤙🏽
Intro song?
why don´t you pull the tire stickers?
I did this on my e92 335i. I also did a carbon roof swap.
Are you on 18 or 19s and how was the fit? What did you do for the rear brakes? I am looking to do this for my E92 too.
where can i see the video for the rear and what was the solution for the rotors?
Looks like he never did them
why the f did u leave the tire stickers on lol
