I wanted to upgrade the calipers rotors and pads and I really don't want to make a mistake on my choice . I don't need anything crazy like the 2-3 brake kits . Just something better then the oem basic brakes it comes with . Maybe the gold coupe sports ones fit ?

Thabk you guys for any help as always appreciate it all .

Gold ones(Brembo) will fit, but it will be quite expensive-judging by ebay- about $1500-$1700 for all 4 corners.
If you do not track your car stock brakes are good. They look kinda small with 19", I understand why you'd want to upgrade.
At the end it all comes down to the size of your wallet.
Wilwood makes very high quality brakes for G/Z. I'd go with that rather than gold Brembo kit from G/Z. I have Wilwood front caliper kit myself and it is superb.

Lot of good deals around you can typically get a used set for around $7-900

A cheaper option is to swap to 05-07 Brakes.

Dual piston front calipers and larger rotors front and rear.


Not a BBK, but will fill up the wheels a little better
