Id go with the Spoons if you still wanna run your stock wheels. Go with a project mu rotor, stock rotor, or wait a bit I heard Stoptech is working on stock sized 2 pc rotors. If you wanna go with a bigger wheel I like the Stoptechs.

Get some decent pads and fluid, ducting if necessary, and #1, #2, and #4 are easily solved. I'm guessing #3 is why you're asking though, so just go with whatever pegs your own personal bling-o-meter: chromed, forged, billet...it doesn't really matter. You're not likely to be going fast enough to break even the most unreliable of S2000 brake kits...

Preston, did the spoons require a modification or upgrade to the master cylinder? Also, can you confirm that a 15mm spacer is the necessary size for the spoons + stock rims?

I'm interested in the Endless 6pots... They have more surface contact then 95% of the aftermarket kits... Endless is also used heavily in the JGTC, so they have a reputation for quality. They will not fit under stock rims however... The spoon 4pots are nice. My friend has them on stock rotors with stock pads and loves them... He says the stoping power is greatly improved.. This would stand to reason, as they are manufactured by Nissan (not the car manufacturer... 
), the manufacturer of the stock braking system... The stock brakes are nice for an oem system, but I'd love to upgrade... I've considered the Bembro GT kit as well... I love the bembros on the 996 c4s and turbo... In the end, it is still all about what you want...
