I am looking to find out the particiculars involved with switching to BMW brakes. I was told that the front calipers from a 3 series (year??) would go right on? Any idea what exactly I need to do this change up?

We've discussed this quite a bit.

Is this a street car?

Are you sure you need a brake upgrade?
I've got good stock brakes on fairly wide & sticky rubber and I can lock up the brakes. Also, fade isn't an issue at the track for my car.

Maybe you just need to restore the stock system. It works pretty well.
