Hi guys,

Do the disc- and drumbrakes of a e30 fit on my e21 320/6 from 1981?
Are they the same?

Thanks!

Regards,
Roy

Hi Jeroen,

I'm look for a complete brake kit (drum kit, discs, brake blocks and brake lines) for my e21 320/6.
On the internet there are a lot of these complete sets for the e30 and much cheaper than the e21 sets.

That's when you already know they aren't interchangeable... but what exactly are you after? Discs and pads don't have to be too expensive and we've done several upgrade group buys lately as well.

If it's stock stuff you're after, 2 Brembo front discs, Ferodo DS-P pads, new front brake hoses, new rear drums and new brake lining sets you back 220 Euros and that is defo not expensive.
