FYI , my BREMBOs are off a Cayman S that comes in @ an Unladen EU weight of 1425 kg with Manual gear box or 1465 kg with the Tiptronic gear box, near identical to the M3 CSL @ 1460 kg, both with balanced chassis unlike the above example of what NOT to do i.e. a 2000 kg 840 Ci V 1200 kg E36 M3 with completely different chassis characteristics
Still have my reservations... but hey, if it works for you, then I say rock on...

P.S. Where was your advice when I fitted the Brembos?

Going backwards through a hedge every time I went for the anchors wasn't exactly good for the paintwork... (but the calipers looked great).
