Hey mate,

as Peter has already mentioned the "floating" rotor system employed by Nashin is quite superb, it's remarkable to find such a spaced hat and rotor peg system on a BBK that is so cost effective.

As an example there was a purpose built R32 GTR race car in the workshop on Friday being prepared for a track day at Eastern Creek. After speaking to the owner it was very clear, he absolutely hammers the car at the racetrack.

IIRC it makes about 380 rwkW on the high boost map and does 1:04's around Wakefield Park. He is running a Nashin BBK with a 355 & 330 mm "floating" rotor combination, G-Series forged calipers with "Competition" pads. Sufficed to say the braking system is tortured and it's being subjected to some extreme temperatures, however the owner of the car couldn't be happier with the reliability of the Nashin's.

I have been doing a lot of research lately on what is available for the 1 & 3 Series BMW's, yes there are a lot of other BBK's available that carry the "big name" and have proven to be very reliable, but with that big name comes big dollars too.

Cheers,

JD.
They certainly look the business too!!
