Are you upgrading your brake master cylinder to accommodate the M3 brakes? They have different part numbers and I read some thread that they might be due to the m3 master cylinder being higher pressure?

Yeah exactly, my driveline has 80k kays and almost 9 years use & looked a hell of a lot better than the 2-3 year old m3 driveline
I've spent hours upon hours cleaning all the m3 components:
wheel carrier washed but not scrubbed, wheel hub has been cleaned up:
Wheel hub after rotor removal:
Stage 1 cleaning with some grease to protect the hubs:
Left vs Right:
Aluminium suspension arms:
No Peter said my oem master cylinder and DSC unit shall be fine, touch wood the brakes shall be OK!
I cant see a heap of difference between the M3 calipers and the 335i calipers TBH I'm thinking perhaps the major difference is just the larger rotors?
