Preyash, I don't think your car is stock. That may be what the guy told you, but that doesn't look like a stock spoiler; furthermore, I think your car must be chipped for your speedo to read 130mph. That probably only represents about 120 to 125, since the speedos on these cars are fast.

It would be a good idea to check and see if you have the stock chip in your car. Or just check the rev limiter. You should be limited at 6500 rpms, just like the 6-cyls, I think (not sure).

i have driven many 318i's in the past and i am here to say there is no way in stock form is it possible without going downhill to even hit 120mph...your speedo is broken or your car is moded if you are going 130, or you are going downhill

I guess all the 318 owners lie so much they start to believe their own lies ... I've said this multiple times, but a stock 318i will not hit 130. Ever.

Just go with OEM brakes. You can get a kit (rotors,pads,e-brake shoes,sensors, and bolts) for the whole car from pelicanparts.com for $320, or just fronts for something like $170
