Aftermarket brakes Vs M Performance

Are there any aftermarket brake caliper/rotor combo that is a direct fit on G20 M340ix?

For example, I have read that Camaro ZL1 brembo kits might work….which I sometimes see on eBay for considerably cheaper than M Performance brakes…and the ZL1 brakes seems beefier.

Is there a searchable part number from brembo or
Other mfr? Or, are there other cars who might have the right brake setup for our cars (eg Camaro zl1)?

Thanks

Those are nice looking brakes.

Anything on the lower end of price spectrum? M-performance brake kits are around$2600 online….are there better options for the price?

What's the end use here?

Track rat? Flexing on the poors? Changing caliper color?

I mean you can find “brake kits” on eBay for $1500 for G20 but who knows what brand they are or where they came from….

Mostly for keeping the brakes on par with the new power (tune+dp) and grip (255 summer tires).

For instance, my previous f30 had the
374mm brakes up front and it hauled down from triple-digit speeds faster and more confidently. In contrast, this G20 has more power and more grip, but worse braking…
