Hi gentleman, I am from Sydney, Australia and recently I recieved some 4 piston brakes from the e32 750i EURO (only available in Germany) frmo a ebay.de auction.

This is for a brake upgrade on my E34 535i. I know the calipers are a bolt on upgrade. What aftermarket pads are available?. All I can come up with are EBC linings (Green and Reds), I also know Textar make the OEM linings. Apart from these two options lining availability is very limited.
I also need 2 caliper rebuild kits - Part number 34111160188 - Number 10 in the diagram.

and the "set mounting parts" - Number 11 - Part number - 34111160189
Also, Erich (Shogun) from Japan, showed me this link -
http://www.7-forum.com/forum/showthread.html?t=55398 - that states the heat resistant plates are not available any more. I'm not sure on what they are; are the heat resistant plates the metal rings on the end of the piston? My used calipers only came with three plates on each caliper. Should there be four?
I want to rebuild the calipers. Where/who is the best supplier in Germany to purchase these parts from. Sorry for the Enligh guys, I don't speak any German.
Regards
Kris
