Curious as to know who if anyone is running 320i ATE calipers on their otherwise stock
brake system, and their impressions... Thanks |

The reason for my inquiry is that I have not been able to lock up the wheels on my car either. I have owned cars without brake boosters, so the feel is not unfamiliar. I don't know the history of the front calipers, the rears were redos from AA. I don't know the size of the MC, 17 or 19 mm. My pedal is not spongy, and feels consistent.
I'm running KFP pads. Rims are factory Fuchs. I always get a kick out of the pad size on these cars. My 92 Civic Si had front pads twice the size, rears about the same. So my thinking was that an increase in front brake size might make a difference. Yes, a call to PMB is planned... |
