Will Brembo 6 Pot 380mm & 4 Pot 345mm Fit From an E46M3

I'm parting out my E46 M3 and I have a front set of 6 piston Monobloc 380mm and a rear set of 4 piston GT 345mm BBK.

I've parted my car out (process of) because I want to get another Porsche. I'm contemplating a Turbo project car and wondering if my BBK will fit if I change over the carrier equipment?

At this point I'm not certain if I'm getting a 993 or 930. I've never seen a 930 with 19"s and I'm fairly certain they would be needed for 380mm. I'm hoping to extensively mod the car. Any constructive input appreciated. I'm going to put this on the 930 section too.

I would just sell the brakes to another E46 enthusiast, as trying to make these work on a Porsche will be hard and costly, you will need the buy rotors, lines, and caliper brackets, tooo much hassle IMO

Thanks for the input. Brembo also told me the calipers are different so they won't work.

yeah, they are right but technically I can make any caliper fit almost any car within reason, but it takes a lot of engineering, and a waste of time for a street car. I am very very close to Brembo, and we sell lots of their products.

That's okay and thanks for the input. When I get mine I'll begin the project as I did with the M3 and build the platform and work my way through the mods. My M3 is nearly completely parted.

You're making the right decision, start off fresh with products specific built for you car, that have the proper engineering.
