Introducing AP Racing by Essex Radi-CAL Competition Brakes, with rear parking brake!




Hi,

Many of you may be familiar with our AP Racing by Essex Competition Brake Kits for previous generations of BMW M cars. We now have a fully sorted front and rear brake kit for the G8x M3 and M4, including an option to maintain your parking brake! Our front system shaves just under 20 lbs. of unsprung weight from the OEM front brakes, while our rear kit also shaves another 20 lbs. if you aren't running a parking brake. If you do need a parking brake, our solution still saves you about 6 lbs. That's anywhere from 26-40 pounds of unsprung weight removed from the car.

For the track rats, our systems also fit a wide range of 18" wheels.

You can see all our brake options for the G8x M3 and M4 here:

We posted a lengthy introduction to our front system on the G8x M3 elsewhere here on the forum: https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1991961

Here's a blog post specifically examining our front kit for the G87 M2: https://www.essexparts.com/news-blog...the-bmw-g87-m2

We have a blog post detailing our rear solution as well, which can be read here: https://www.essexparts.com/news-blog...2g87-rear-kits










Our calipers also offer huge convenience benefits to anyone who is swapping between street and track pads, since our calipers don't need to be removed to do so.

Man, I'm really excited about this.

The only thing that keeps me from getting something like this yet is the homologation in CH.

I know that the fronts are ok, the rears need to go through the process I think
