BMW v TR7 discs


Which one would you prefer to be stopping you?
The one on the left is a vented disc for a BMW 325 complete here with spacer and TR7 hub. On the right is a standard TR7 disc.

The TR7 standard disc now looks completely inadequate! Plenty of meat on the BMW discs - Brembos no less and all for £32.50 + VAT! Posted by Hello

You are going to really appreciate the difference I'm sure. Standard '7 brakes aren't great and those look like the business. Hope this results in an article explaining what's needed to do these upgrades and how well it all works. A change from the usual Capri 2-pots and Princess / Ambassador 4-pots.

Thanks Malcolm.

Yes there will be an article in due course when I have made them work!

Sure, it's from an E30 - part no B60122 bought from http://www.gsfcarparts.com/


Bear in mind this set up isn't on the car yet so I can't say how good it is - or even if it will work!

Still, the discs cost £32.50 for the pair + VAT. The calipers £55 each + VAT and P&P.
