BBK are worthless.
Another advantage is that the disks cool a lot quicker than the OEM disks making them much better for track days as you don't have to wait so long for them to cool between runs.
I will be changing my rears as soon as a Wilwood kit becomes available.

You can save a *lot* of unsprung weight by changing the brakes.

Since discs are so big, that they are too cold for the brake pads and it does not reach their optimal temp level for braking.
Regarding saving unsprung weight is more important the wheel than the brakes, the more unsprung weight you save farther from the wheel hub better benefit you will have.
I will scan I test made by a magazine with a MX5 with sotck brakes vs BBK, after 20 braking test the stock brakes was still better than BBK

Bloody hell........
Even mine didn't take this long
With regards to the brakes I'd always swear by a BBK(as long as its a quality one) after I took my AP's off I nearly crashed it straight into the first wall I came to
stock S2000 brakes are PONY!!!
