I'd do a rebuild on the existing calipers first, that might already do miracles.

I would suggest you complete setup from 323i - calipers and vented rotors - it is bolt on update

Is there a big difference between 323i and 316 fronts?

Is there a big difference between 323i and 316 fronts?

Only when you use it constantly, because they are ventilated.

The calipers are the same, 323i have a spacer, because the rotors are wider.
Same pads.

Best upgrade for a E21 316, is E21 323i front and rear brakes.
