M Coupe brake disks

[Grega]

Hi guys
I recently bought a 2000 M Coupe and I desperatly need to change the front brake disks. Any of you other Mcoupe drivers out there know of any good after market disks that are reasonably priced? I got a quote from guys that sell performance brakes and it was R7950 for the front disks and pads, I thought it was a bit steep. Any advice?
Thanks

Did new front discs, skim rear discs, new pads all round + bleed brakes for under 3k at CBF Tel: 011 792 1458/9

Nice. I managed to get new front disks and pads, bleeding etc, inspection 2 service, and stabilizer end links for R4k. But that was a 328i.

@Grega - how much below spec are your current front discs?

The disks seem quite grooved and have a shudder under hard braking from over 120kph. I dont know to much about the sizes etc of the disks on the M coupe, are they the same size and spec as a E36 M3?
Thanks Zaleonardz I will give them a call.

Find out what spec is, a mechanic should be able to tell you, and check yours, if they can be skimmed, it shouldnt be much, my mechanic can get discs skimmed for R70 a disk, which seems reasonable. If they are below spec, then you will have to replace them...

The front discs are the same as an E36 M3. Try calling power brake direct. They sorted out a friend's M coupe with grooved discs. Not sure the price though.

Cheaper ones will probably not be floating. But not sure if you will need that performance.

Thanks guys, I will ask a mechanic and see what he says, hopefully they can just skim

I have a brand new set of floating e46 M3 front discs, I want R4500 for the pair.
