I have been thinking about doing the beemer front disk brake upgrade. The only thing that bothers me is the loss of the parking /(cough, cough) emergency brake. I had an idea to look for a motorcycle front disk brake rotor mounted to the axleshaft with a cable operated brake assembly mounted to the tranny (I think there are three useable bolts on the RH side). Anyone play with this idea before?

I wasted money on the BMW brakes before going to the Brembo aluminum calipers. The Brembo calipers is one of the best upgrades I have done on a 914 and I feel money well spent.
