Apologies for bringing this back from the dead... but @jorligan I'm curious what pad compound did you go with for the AP kit?I went with the AP Racing front and rear from Essex. Gave up the parking brake, removed the actuater and then secured them so no parking brake light. Ferodo pads. The car finally feels connected and there is linear brake feel. I felt that the stock brakes gave really strong braking but as you eased off the brake when trail braking, there was a point that the rear brakes suddenly seemed to engage. Didn't upset the car but it did make for more slowing than necessary. No issue with the AP racing setup, firm pedal with great feel and the feel remains linear as you trail brake and ease off the brake. Cannot recommend it enough.
I was considering the R1 Concept bbk F&R. But after reading this I'm reconsidering. Maybe just stick with the AP's. Anyone have bad experience with tracking R1 BBK?here are some info on track pads.

I don't know about BBK from R1... the topic was specific to their pad..I was considering the R1 Concept bbk F&R. But after reading this I'm reconsidering. Maybe just stick with the AP's. Anyone have bad experience with tracking R1 BBK?
Just noticed this. I know this works on G20, etc. but assume you also need corresponding caliper? Also wondering if you then also need the right master cylinder.what about the bmw 395mm front disc upgrade?
i doubt it since it seems like its the same caliper but bigger... as long as the pistons aren’t bigger the master cylinder shouldn’t need to be changed outJust noticed this.
