RE: Advise on brake upgrades
Braded hoses and good fluid, but afaik the 330i brakes be bigger disk, not sure its worth the upgrade tho??
RE: Advise on brake upgrades
Do a brake flush and renew it with a good quality fluid before you decide on any upgrade , I think you'll be happy with that
Edit: As Chris mentioned fit braided hoses as well
RE: Advise on brake upgrades
Get brembo discs and pads, great upgrade and not expensive
Re: Advise on brake upgrades
Braided hoses ,good pads,brake fluid + discs and calipers from a 330i should be enough to hop your passengers head off the dash :D
Haven't heard good things about brembo discs or pads but I never used them so not sure
But ate do an upgraded disc valdas knows the name of it I cant think of it at the moment

Ah cool! So braided lines and upgraded discs and brakes it is! With the money I'm spending on this maybe I should just buy an M3 :)
RE: Advise on brake upgrades
E46 330 are a common up-grade,get up-graded discs and pad's callipers,carriers braided hoses their just a bolt on job . I wouldn't bother with the rear as there not as straight forward!
Another cheapish job is to get the brembo callipers from a 750/850 as there 4 pot!
Someone tried to say there're no better but I really can't understand there point as I'd be thinking if you had bigger disc's callipers pads would= greater pad coverage on the disc there for having a greater stopping power!
You might need to chance your break servo to stop the brake peddle travel but people have said you get used to it after a while!
