    k-sport 8 pot brake callipers - are all kits the same

    Apex peeps,

    I brought a 330mm 8 pot k-sport front brake kit for an e36 coupe from you a while back. Are the calipers in this kit the same as the calipers in all the kits (more specifically the s14 kits) - does each kit just have differing mounting brackets to fit the different makes?

    If it is just different brackets what cars will the calipers bolt straight onto?

    Cheers

    Brackets, hoses and bells differ from vehicle to vehicle.

    But the calipers themselves are the same yes? What car do the calipers fit on with no adaptor/spacer brackets please?

    Want to use the current setup from my beemer on my new 200 (whenever i actually get round to buying one).

    Cheers

    All E36 except M3.

    All E46 bar ones that come with 328mm front brakes as standard and the M3.

    Z3 and Z4.

    I dont think youre quite understanding the question.

    Will the calipers for the brake kit i brought for my e36 bolt straight upto an S14 or will i need adaptor brackets to make them fit?

    You need new brackets, bell and lines.
