hope its help...

Nice, every search I do involving "nissan" and "e36" are just engine swaps. lol

My brake pad sensors still work but there needed to be some rewiring since the socket from the donor BBK doesn't fit our BMW ones. Basically just need to mate the wiring together and it'll be fine. ABS should still work but I've yet to test it .

What if the doner calipers dont come with pad sensors?, Sorry for the n00b questions! :26:

Then won't work lor

It's no biggie actually for the brake pad sensors. You can visually check the pads yourself from time to time.

My calipers are from a Porsche 986.

Sorry to revive an old thread, since my ride is undergoing heart transplant.. and the disc look like absolute crap, why not do an upgrade instead.

My mech recommends 330i instead of other bigbrakes for their compatibility.. anyone have any idea what is the street price for the caliper & disc front & rear?
