The original 300x32mm Rally BBK allowed to fit 15" Kosei K1s without any need of spacers. It was a slam dunk that pleased racers who wanted to keep 15" rims. Sadly, I had to phase out that BBK when Wilwood stopped producing the venerable Sl6R caliper and replaced it with a Radially mounted Superlite caliper which was cheaper. Great would you say? Sadly, that new version was designed to accept up to 14" / 355mm rotors, and therefore the saddle was too long and would no longer work under 15" rims.
That was 5 years ago. In the meanwhile I have received a lot of request for that kit but had to deny them. It can't be done. The only satisfactory solution would be to use another caliper. AP Racing's CP8350 as sold by Essex in North Carolina. The price is higher that Wilwood's SL6R at $599usd retail. If you have a friend with a shop, he can probably get it for well under $500usd.
The e30 M3 kit would be the equivalent of what I already offer for the 4-lug e30.

While a rear 300x32mm BBK for e30 M3 and using an AP Racing CP8350 caliper is already available. Shown below with 4-lug hats but I already have 5-lug M3 hats in stock. A steel handbrake drum is also already available for people wanting to retain their OEM handbrake mechanisn.

So the question is very simple. Would there be a demand to reissue the e30 M3 Rally kit, but with AP Racing CP8350 caliper in replacement of the old SL6R?
I would do a single production and wouldn't shelf the, I'd need 15 orders minimum. And as usual, people arwe responsible to buy calipers and rotors from their usual source. I would only supply the pats that I design and produce. That is black aluminum hats, stainless steel drive-pins and teflon seals, black anodized alu radial mounts, hydraulic adapters for OEM brake lines and all fasteners.
Please let me know.
