Affordable track brake setup
I can’t really afford a huge BBK but the brakes are the priority for upgrading before I go to the track again. Ruined all my fun but I only have the base 312mm front rotors on my 430i. I do have hawk pads and use their fluid but I definitely need something like the m sport brembos, like $2100 from getbmwparts. Can someone offer some advice on an affordable track oriented setup?

Get the M performance brakes for the F32. I have these on my 435. The front rotors are 370mm & the rears are 345mm I believe. 4 POT front, 2 POT rear.
At one point I ran Powerstop track day pads with Motul RBF fluid on the track. It was insane. The stopping power was ridiculous. At night you could see sparks fly up LOL

The M performance brakes are phenomenal. I drove a friends 335i equipped with the oem bmw M performance brakes at Buttonwillow in the summer and it had no problem with fade or feel. He did have Endle$$ fluid though.
