Those that are technically/mechanically inclined. Swapping brakes?

Need help from those of you that build cars. I have Brembo BBK's coming for the E92 M3, but instead of selling the existing OEM brakes for give away prices. I thought I might use them on my Z3 M Coupe. However, what are the complexities and difficulties of doing so? I'm sure they will clear the wheels, just need to know what needs to be done to make the E92 M3 brakes work on the Z3 M Coupe.

Thanks in advance!

If the lug patterns are the same, you would have to fabricate caliper mounts, possibly extend the brake hoses. It is a little more complex than that but that is where I would start.
