    You got me thinking about your comparison of the M2C rear brakes to the F3x M Sport front brakes, so I pulled out specs that I collect to see if I had additional information.
    Pistons:
    M2C 28mm x 4
    MS 40mm x 4
    (Obviously it would take exact area measurements of pads to calculate force exerted by caliper pistons/pads on rotor surface)
    Rotors: (2-piece)
    M2C 380x28 21.0 lbs
    MS 370x30 26.5 lbs
    (This difference surprised me, if the weight that I had is accurate. It’s from Zimmermann specs, not from me weighing them as you did. Would seem that the design of the M2C 2-piece rotor is more efficient for weight savings.
    Anyway, cool video! Thanks for posting!

    hi - the front calipers and discs are originally from the M5 F10 / M6 F12

      Calipers have a slight difference in fitting. can't use the M5/6 calipers with m2 rotors as they are thicker, use of brackets will come into play

    This brakes are awesome, i have them on m2c too.
    Rear OEM brake disc and pads are great.
    On front i am using girodisc brake disc and endless pads - fits like oem.

      It's not a drop in install on F3x vehicles. You'll need an adapter bracket.

    Beefy for sure! The downside with this kit is the crazy weight. I tried it but directly when i drove the car it felt worse than before. The high weight made the car feels crashy and clumsy on the road and suspension didn't like it at all. Me neither. When i compared the weight with ceramic discs the difference was about 15 pounds EACH at the front. That is a crazy amount of weight difference for just one wheel axle. As it is proven that the stock blue calipers works fine on the track with a set of Ferodo race pads and a better and lighter floating disc i would choose that instead. I got a good deal on ceramics so i bought that and the car feels much better, tripping on it's toes and steering and suspension behaviour is much better.
    Thanks for the review :)!

      You can buy these Brembo brakes from BMW dealers. I recommend using RealOEM to look up the PNs. You'd need the PNs for the various pieces (calipers, rotors, brake lines, ect.).

    Any suggestions for brake squeal?

    • @FaRKle0079
      @FaRKle0079  Рік тому +1

      You'd probably be best getting more street oriented pads. You can attempt doing a proper bedding, but any pad with decent metallic content (which performance pads have) can squeal.

  • @nigel_white
    @nigel_white 3 роки тому +1

    For those unaware, friction is independent of surface area. In other words, more surface area does not mean more friction. I realize that's counterintuitive, but it is what it is.

    • @FaRKle0079
      @FaRKle0079  3 роки тому

      Yup! Larger pads have better thermal load capacities.

      You can go to www.realoem.com to search through the available BMW brakes for your model/chassis. BMW offered 6-piston Brembo front calipers, but not 4-piston rears.
      If you want 4-piston rears you'll have to look at an aftermarket Brembo kit.

    Excellent video. Can anyone recommend aftermarket pads for streets and occasional track use but one that will produce less dust than the stock pads?

    • @FaRKle0079
      @FaRKle0079  3 роки тому +1

      I'm not sure something like that exists. Usually the "dual use" pads still dust a fair amount. You can look into EBC Yellowstuff, Ferodo DS2500 (these definitely don't dust any less), or Stoptech Sport pads for dual use. Just remember that dual use pads don't tend to last all that long at the track.

      @FaRKle0079  2 роки тому

      There's a VO code specifying the larger 2NH brakes, that will drive other config changes in modules like the DSC module for them over the Brembo 4/2 piston brake set.

  • @mbonnoi

    So dumb question... these stock Brembo pads are not ceramic correct? I assume you'd want something else for track days. I wish I could find a pad that's good for track days + daily driving so I don't have to continually change them

    • @FaRKle0079
      @FaRKle0079  3 роки тому

      Yeah the stock pads aren't ceramic. Ceramic pads are for street pads. Track pads are typically metallic. Some of the Stoptech pads, EBC Yellowstuff, and Ferodo DS2500 can be dual used, but get eaten up at the track at a pretty high rate.

    Thanks for another excellent video chock full of interesting details. It was interesting that pads didn’t have weights and no grease was used. On F3x brakes that would cause all kinds of noise and complaints. Was there noise when you were driving these stock M2C brakes? Maybe Brembo has engineered out the need for weights/grease with this caliper design?

    What a PITA to have to take the caliper off every time you have to change pads! It wouldn't have been so bad if you could do it by removing the Torx fasteners, but of course those are the ones BMW doesn't want you to touch. D'oh! At least the pads are pretty meaty, so hopefully you don't have to do it that often.

    • @FaRKle0079
