Hello Everyone!

I am new at the forum.

After watching a video on Youtube i have ordered G chassis front Calipers for 395mm rotors.

I have also ordered E70 X5M front rotors 395/36mm

Anyone did this mod before?

From what I have seen, people typically upgrade their brakes to f15 50i or x5M brakes. It seems that both e70 and f15 brakes are direct bolt on without modifications.

I have yet to see anyone upgrade to G brakes. Keep us posted.

(i upgraded mine to 50i).

That looks great. I have just purchased some G05 calipers second-hand for my f15 and going to refurbish them when they arrive. mind me asking what brand of E70 discs you went with?
