 Blue side of Manchester!
I've just had delivered a set from eBay. They're the wrong ones, appear to be earlier Z4. Listed for E86 part no.FC1300h. Does anyone know the part number if available for mine? Or an alternative track/road pad. Thanks!
 
front FDS1300 / FCP1300
rear FDS1301 / FCP1301

pads look same actually for most, so why do you think there wrong?

Thank's biojo for the reply.
That part number is the same as the one i have. It appears Ferodo have made the mistake. They list the same pad for E85 and E86. The E86 has bigger discs!
After cross referencing with EBC's site, the E86 3.0si uses the same pad as the E46 330Ci and E46 330d etc, The pictures and sizes seem to confirm this.
The correct Ferodo part number is FCP1073h. will confirm this when i finally get them. I've asked the ebay seller for a return or replacement.
Hopefully i'm correct. That's an hour and half of my life i won't get back lol! Thanks again.
 
ye i know the Si has same size discs as the 330`s but duno if the calipers are the same

Loves the ds2500 on previous car with brembo HC discs
 
Great pads. Use them on the Escort and Cosworth. Never experienced any fade on track and they feel like a standard road pad. The seller has agreed to a return and I'll order the others. I'll confirm they are correct on here and the seller is going to inform Ferodo! If you look at the part number for pads on the EBC site, yellow stuff etc (only for reference,) they are the same for mine using my reg number as the E46 330 etc. Also the dimensions are the same, so finger's crossed ;)
 
Please keep this updated - I was on the point of ordering a set but hadn't got round to it yet! You may well have saved me the pain! :P

The e85 3.0si uses the same pads too...

Or are you saying they've sent you the standard 3.0i pads?

3.0 se against / 3.0 si, I know E model is irrelevant
 
SE is also irrelevant. It's 3.0si vs 3.0i. Both can be SE or Sport.

The 330 calipers, carriers, discs and pads are indeed all identical to the 3.0si set up on both e85 & e86.
 
I'll confirm when pads have landed and I'm 100%. My car is a E86 3.0SI coupe 2007! The pads were listed on eBay for the E86.
 
Pads have arrived. Ferodo 2500 FCP1073H Listed for E46 330i along with others!
These are the correct pads for my car, E86 3.0si Coupe 195kw 261bhp. I presume they're also correct for E85 2006 onwards facelift cars with the 3.0 195kw engines with 325mm discs. (Do all later 3.0 cars have these?)

The pads listed for the above cars by Ferodo are FCP1300H. This is incorrect. These must be for the earlier 2003-2006 3.0 cars, which i presume from the shape and size of these pads have smaller discs!

I'm now in the process of fitting my new grooved and dimpled discs, front and rear. Also painting calipers and carrier's in gumetal grey. Will post pics when done!

Hope this information is useful to others. Feel free to correct any of the above!
