Using a BBK from a 'normal' M3

Back on topic, although searching for those boots was a lot of fun...

It should work fine, if you find that there

in-line Bias Valve to the rears which will
allow you to give more bias to the fronts.

Good for Wet Track Days as well.

Regrards,

The voice of reason. I just don't want to discover that there is too much rear bias by disappearing through a hedge backwards. That said, I am guessing that the differences will be minor...?

Hi,

I doubt you will notice it.

A std E46 M3 is circa 70%
front 30% rear.

The Stop Tech std M3 Kit will be
somewhere close to 70/30.

The Gorilla.

Thanks for that - top advice. Of note, I only have Stoptech fronts (designed, I gather, to retain balance with OEM M3 rears). I guess that shifts the balance slightly, but not too much.

Hi,

Fronts only will work fine.

Would be good to match up
the rear pads though, if you
can.

You are assuming a lot. I can vouch that, unfortunately, they will not be this variety:
