I can certainly tell you from experience with some heavy racing that my car stops great with the standard BMW E36 brakes. I have the standard calipers, upgraded drilled and slotted rotors, and performance friction street/strip pads. My brakes will put my face through the windshield. It all relative to weight, repetitive use, heat, and pressure.

Great pads go a long way and can make a standard E36 brake package a serious braking machine on a 2500 lb car.

Good luck, James
