[QUOTE="alantiong, post: 707877, member: 19754"] i believe E34 brakes are very similiar to E32. I use to drive the E32 740iL and i have to say braking is not the best features of this generation BMW. what i did was to upgrade my front calipers to E38 4 pots Brembos. result/improvement next to nothing as the rotor size is the same. 316mm.what i should have done is to find a system that is at least 325 or even 330mm but that will create some other issues like wheel offsets and wheel size to fit the spares. but if you E34 rotor is less than 316, you should try fit the V8s ones in. as diameter of rotor is all the leverage about in stopping power. i do agree to roberto comment that before you upgrade, sort out the present brake as many are in bad shape considering the age of the car. you will be surprised what a change of master cylinder seals and piston seals will improve and revive ur brakes.
