New rear discs and pads required. I believe these are e34 brakes? Anyone know the part numbers or where I should get from. Is it worth buying genuine parts? Also I need a battery. Thanks

Is this for street, track or a mixture of both ? Genuine front discs are hard to beat. I've used various when tracking at the Nurburgring and stock held up very well. Cheap Zimmerman style cross drilled crap will crack very quickly.
Rear discs don't take much abuse so if a street car only, any quality aftermarket would be OK. If changing the lot and using on the street only, a complete set of genuine discs and pads all round wouldn't be a bad way to go, maybe an uprated front pad for anything beyond that.

May as well stay with OE, although Hawk are a good alternative.
