It would be like downsizing the 335i engine to 328i levels and than modifying it to get the 335i output. Is counter intuitive. You are better off making the stock 335i brakes more hard core upgrading the bushings, rotors, pads, brake lines and brake fluid than investing into any 135i setup. That is why, even for those who are frugal, I recommend the f30 setup.

Completely agree. But I wasn't talking about brakes for a 335i. And the thread is about upgrading 328i brakes not 335i brakes which is the subject I was responding to.
