Big brakes kit

If you want to uprate your brakes at a reasonable price here’s all you’ll need in one easy to fit package. All parts are less than 500 miles old
New Mtec 325 mm discs
New EBC blue stuff pads - track oriented but phenomenal power, only downside is dust and noise these have done less than 500 miles.
Hubs and ABS sensors
New stainless braided flexible hoses
2 new calipers one has been on the car a year but has done less than 500 miles, right hand calliper is literally 200 miles old.
Brakes are off of an E46 330D so larger discs than standard E85 300 mm takes it up to 325 mm.
I originally wanted to track the car but my priority has changed and I’m reverting back to standard in preparation for selling the car.
I’m looking for £450

Whoops added some extra pics there by accident :rofl:
How do you propose to pick them up ? Norwich is a bit of a drive from Edinburgh
 
Yes absolutely, but they are heavy so I’d need to package them up and weigh them to get a few quotes
and I’ll get back to you regarding a price
Leave it with me :thumbsup:
 
Hi Jock
Sorry was away at the weekend and been busy with work I’ll get on to this tomorrow and get a price for p&p for you asap
Apologies

No worries! I’m still in hospital 👎
Hi Jock, sorry to hear you're still not fully rebuilt. Hope all is well.
Apologies gents for slightly hijacking this thread, but I previously suggested to Jock that I could help out with handbrake adjustment, but put it on hold as I had to fully dismantle mine to sort them out.
Does this still need doing or will this brake upgrade mean not bothering to sort them out jut yet?
Let me know if you still need them sorted mate.
 
Hi Enuff thanks for the kind offer again.

Please let me know a good time/ date for you and I’ll pop over to have it done.

Many thanks 😊
 
Hopefully getting this lot fitted this Friday 🤞

A few questions…….

1. The kit didn’t appear to come with sliders & bolts 🤷‍♂️

Does anyone have the part numbers so I can buy them prior to fitting.

Again part numbers for pistons.

Again part numbers for any seals etc.

If I’m gonna fit them I want to put all new where possible back on 👍

TIA and I really would appreciate any feedback ASAP to allow this to happen on Friday.

Please note I am useless it is a mechanic who will be doing it 😀
 
What do you need? Just the slider pins? By the looks of the pics there aren’t calliper carriers included?

May need a new brake disc retaining bolt too?

Worth getting new bolts for the hub as well. They normally snap coming out.

Will get you some P/N later :thumbsup:

Hi Jock,

The calipers are new so no need to change the seals or pistons, I thought I'd included the bolts and pins with the whole package. I'm not sure if you can use your existing ones off the the car currently in use?
:thumbsup:
 
Thanks Scooby for the reply! 👍

This is what I’ve got, but what do I need in terms of bolts seals etc?
