I prefer the M5 brakes because of the 'original' BMW feel <img src="http://www.bmwclubmalaysia.com/forums/images/icons/icon10.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> and also the fact that the dics are of compound material compares to the Brembo BBK... Afta doing some research and waiting for opportunity to get one set of the M5 front brakes, i finally received the shipment today and straight i went to get it installed at freddie's place...halfway thru found that the caliper clip was missing...damn<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> but since on the car liau so just use it as it is...no hard braking...<img src="http://www.bmwclubmalaysia.com/forums/images/icons/icon10.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> now waiting for the clips to arrive... here are some photos... <img src="http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t114/t2ribena/15-06-09_1545.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> the stock front brake... <img src="http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t114/t2ribena/15-06-09_1624.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> the M5 brake caliper..it is so huge... <img src="http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t114/t2ribena/15-06-09_1737.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> the disc and caliper installed... <img src="http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t114/t2ribena/15-06-09_1706.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> another angle...</p></blockquote><p></p>
