Its six-piston Superlite calipers work with 13.06-inch GT rotors on separate hats, leaving the original BMW hubs in place. From its base in Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures disc brake systems for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Founded by Bill Wood in 1977, the company also produces the individual calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines used in these installations. Selection should account for how each component works within the complete brake system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer part number: 140-8797\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eService calipers: 6-piston Forged Narrow Superlite 6R; Black Powder Coat; radial mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake rotors: 13.06 x 1.25 inches; Spec-37 Iron; GT Slotted; vented\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded pad compound: BP-10; pistons: stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaliper body: Forged aluminum; hydraulic inlet: 1\/8-27 NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotor surface finish: Black Electro Coat; rotors are not supplied burnished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotor\/hat wheel-stud clearance pattern(s): 5 x 4.75 in; 5 x 120.65 mm; the existing hub\/axle pattern is retained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHat\/rotor stud-hole clearance: 0.520 in; 13.21 mm; this is not a wheel-stud thread designation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydraulic hoses: not included; match the separate lines and fittings to the application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKit includes calipers, rotors and mounting hardware; replacement hubs and spindles are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot included: master cylinder and brake booster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheel clearance: 17-inch wheels may fit; check the complete manufacturer caliper\/rotor template\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantity: sold as one axle kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe confirmed applications are 1995–1999 BMW M3 E36 and 1998–2001 Z3 M Roadster with the 3.2-liter engine.
