The rears are even more unnecessary. The fronts do most of the work. Again, good pads, rotors and rubber. THats the number one requirement.

Any pads or rotors u recommand?How much ?I was looking at the 6piston,but once u put those bad boy on.Stock wheel no worky hehe.

I know the 4 pot worky on stocky.

Wich is better slotted or drilled or slotted/drilled?

The 4 piston kit from Wilwood also reduces weight off the front of the car - screw the braking!

The guys at stoptech seem to be quite intelligent, and they are very willing to help potential buyers. you should visit www.stoptech.com and look at there tech articles. of the two choices, i would pick Stoptech.

I am getting a custom kit made up by brembo racing UK, significantly cheaper than thier own GT kit and more suited to racing.
332x32 discs using the F50 4 pot caliper with custom bells and brackets
AP racing was my first choice but they are stalling in releasing the kit
