Performance Friction Front Left Direct Drive V3 replacement ring 322.28.0054.451 BMW E46 M3
322.28.0054.451
Replacement rings for the Performance Friction 322.053.63 & 322.053.64 Direct Drive Rotor direct 2-piece rotor replacement for the BMW E46 M3 (01-06) front brakes. They are designed to be used with the factory caliper, with no other parts or modifications necessary. Kit includes everything needed (rotor, hat and hardware) for a single rotor replacement. Priced per rotor. PFC Pads suggested - check pad-clearance before using with any other manufacturer pads.
2-piece rotors offer better cooling over a one-piece design. Performance Friction's full floating Direct Drive attachment system allows the brake disc to naturally expand/contract on both radially and axially without being constrained by the hub. This helps eliminate rotor warping, vibrations and pulsations. Due to the high quality of Performance Friction's design and manufacturing, the Direct Drive rotors are completely silent and rattle-free - a trait typically found in many competitor's 2-piece designs. The hat assembly is completely reusable - no need to buy the entire rotor again! And, because the rotor is designed for use with the factory caliper, you can still use your favorite Performance Friction brake pads!

Description
PFC Direct Drive V3 Rotors are premium two-piece floating rotors designed to work with your stock E46 M3 calipers and braking system!
Performance Friction's advanced V3 design features a patented attachment design that uses a retention ring that holds the hat and disc together, meaning there's no longer any need for torque wrenches, and there's no hassle with replacements.
Not only does the V3 design give you the ability to change a disc quickly and efficiently, the new V3 technology also makes these rotors much lighter than previous designs, which were already impressively light - less unsprung weight is always a good thing! This V3 rotor retention method is based on the use of a two-turn retaining ring, which is held in a groove in the hat that overlaps the rotor flanges—effectively locking the rotor to the hat.
Performance Friction’s higher precision and tolerances give you a rotor that will reduce drag, eliminate pulsation and vibration, and reduce heat transfer. Plus, wear rate is greatly reduced as well! Direct Drive V3 rotors are over two pounds lighter per rotor with a dimpled finish that performs similar to slotted discs but without any increase in wear.
Made from high-carbon alloy with copper and molybdenum for high-temperature strength and stability
Vanes (all 47) are turned on both ID and OD surfaces to reduce thermal warping and vibration
Runout of less than 0.0005" and thickness variation less than 0.0002" to reduce pulsing and vibration
Surface finish less than 0.7 microns
Advanced V3 two-turn retaining ring
Direct Drive rotors require a higher initial investment versus BMW Motorsport or floating rotors due to their superior quality, but the service cost of replacing the rotors are very similar.
