F56 Front brake calipers?

Does anyone know if the F56 front brake calipers will fit on a 2006 R53 MCS ? Thanks...

If they're the same as the R56, they should fit. I checked on Rockauto and some models have the same part numbers as the R56, some have different brakes, so you'd need to confirm that first. I have the R56S on mine.

I don't think 3rd gen brakes can be retrofit to 1st and 2nd gen cars, at least not without some work. Pretty sure they won't bolt right up.
