Anyone With Stoptech 380mm Rotors On E9x Non-M????

Former_Boosted_IS · 06-30-2011, 02:08 PM

Stoptech seems to have the 380 mm rotor for the E9x non-M, but not tested on any 335. A lot of companies advertise the 380 mm for the E9x non-M on this site so I was wondering if anyone has the 380 mm? If not, why are these guys advertising the kit for our car if it is not available?

I believe S4to335 used to have it. I'm not sure if he frequents the forums here anymore as he moved onto a Miata for tracking, but worth checking with him.

It appears Stoptech is looking for a car to test fit the 380mm kit for the E9x. If I was close, I would volunteer, but I am not. It stinks that it "appears" right now they have the kits ready to go but won't release them until they get a test car for fitment.

Where are they located? I thought they had a shop at Infineon, but maybe I'm mistaken.

From their website:

"Caliper bodies, hats, and brackets are machined to ISO standards at StopTech's manufacturing facilities in Southern California using the latest CNC machines that feature active tooling"

I am assuming southern California, but I am not 100% sure. Hopefully we can get one of our members over there to test fit the 380s so we can get these to market!

I think they are in/near Carson, CA.. I've been to their warehouse before (bought some ERS springs a few years ago for my honda from one of their employees). They are on my way home from work.

Am I the only one that cares about 380 mm from Stoptech for the non-M?

Chowbow · 07-01-2011, 03:04 PM

Well honestly, I think the stock brakes are pretty good with an aggressive track pad in there...

just spoke to Richard at Stoptech. he said they have nothing nor testing anything for the 335i and a 380mm rotor. who did you talk to? I would be interested as well and I am local.

I am almost 100% positive they have the 380 mm 335 non-M kit done, but the just need to test fit it on a car with their engineers to assure fitment. Let me see if I can get a name. Thanks jzepeda!
