Just trying to figure out my next car move and the M-Coupe is on the list. I have tons of mods to my E46 M3 and would really like to just move them over to the M-Coupe if possible. Here's a list of things I was wondering about:

1) Brembos: F (355) and R (345)
2) TC Kline DA Coilovers (I know rears will work, just wondering about the fronts)
3) GSP brake pedal

Here's a list of things that I know I can carry over:

1) 4.10 Diff
2) Euro headers & Cats
3) LMs
4) RAC RS110s w/ 275 RA-1s

It'll make the decision easier if I know that all of these things will work and I don't have to buy them again.

Thanks for all your help!

All except for the TC Kline DA fronts.

Depending on wheel clearance, yes. But that's the same case as the E46 M3, no?

I'm not sure the two kingpins are the same. Thus, I wanted to know if I would need to purchase a different bracket to mount the caliper with, or just use the one that came with the E46 kit. I'll have to talk to Brembo to confirm if the same bracket # is used.

Thanks.

Part numbers for the caliper carrier appears to be identical between the Z4M/Z4M coupe and the E46 M3 with Competition package.

Baring wheel fitment issues, it will bolt right up. And I'm certain the king pins are different (the front strut mounts differently, at least), but the mounting points are identical.
