R53 JCW Brake Replacement... Part numbers?

[RachyS]

Hi,

I have a 54 plate JCW. I've had it about 6 months and the front brakes have seen better days! One of the calipers appears to be binding too so I need to get them checked out but whilst they're apart I figured I might aswell replace the pads and discs as they're all but shot.

Now I *think* it has the JCW brake upgrade. It has Red calipers with Works stickers on them, but they aren't Brembos. They're just 2 pot calipers with Works on them. They could even be painted standard S calipers with stickers on for all I know!

The only thing making me think otherwise is there is a sticker on the inside of the B Pillar saying something along the lines of "Works brake upgrade. Replace with Works parts".

SO - My question is, what parts do I need to replace them with? Are there part numbers for these? Or are they actually just standard S parts?

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Fantastic! Thanks you

So it does have a brake upgrade then!
They are 294mm... what are stock S discs?

So to get this right: revised part # for discs are 34116774986

And revised pad part # is 34116778320


Any tips on any online stores I could order these from? I'm new to the mini world!
