I have heard of a few e21 brake upgrades one of them which is e12 4 pot calipers on the front.

Has anyone done this and know what is involved in doing the conversion

I have 323i struts which they can go on also have m535i brake servos

Any advice would be appreciated

thanks

iirc you'll need to swap hubs and a run with 5 studs.
