UPDATE: so had the ZED power bled, with ATE racing blue brake fluid that i had sitting in the garage from the MINI, and then took it for a test drive.

Let me just say that the Z4 brakes even in "I" form where fantastic now their out of this world, she stopes on a dime and is super responsive, pedal feel is greatly improved and feels better than before. im thinking with the lighter N52 engine than the S64 or M54 the Z4M rotors coupled with the 135I calipers make the braking that much better... it feels it stops better than my MINI cooper S with the brembo GT kit on it.....

stopping fast from 60 mph is straigt and true and no ill affects felt.
No ABS triggered or loss of traction from rotors locking up felt either.

i had to reajust slow stoping however as the new brakes grab a lot better than before so less pedal pressure is needed.

all in all as far as daily driving is concerned its a win win! if i ever see a track ill post more but so far im sold.

looks great, stopes great = happy man!
