Opinions on each. Advantages : Disadvantages; Pros : Cons...what have you.
I'm looking to possibly getting a BBK done. I'm delegating between StopTech and Project Mu.

Opinions on what would be good for my kind of driving. I use the car as my daily ride to and from wherever. I also engage in trackdays, circuit type...maybe I'll dab in some auto-x.

 

Dont Get Any Brake Kits Use The Facotry Kit, Big Brak Upgrades Are Made For Raqcing And If The Rotor Is Not Hot, They Dont Brake Well, So For The First Ten Minuted Of Driving Your Braking Will Be Bad Because The Rotors, Are Not Hot, And There Is No Chemical Reaction Making Them To Stop.

 

I believe the operating temperature is going to be determined by the brake pads and not the rotors! I would go with either, both are good kits. I know the project mu line offers a large selection of brake pad choices. You may want to go that route since you have have your Project Mu NS or BFORCE pads isntalled for daily driving and switch to a different pad on track days. If I remember correctly you want to avoid cross drilled rotors if you autoX since they build up alot of heat and can crack/warp. I believe slotted is the way to go for track cars. I would PM Afropuff, I think he is fairly knowledgeable on the subject and has done alot of research.

IMO I would stick with your stock system for now. Get some better race/auto-x pads just for your track days. You'll want to put in some better brake fluid with a higher boiling point as well. If you really want you can switch your rotors for OEM sized slotted ones and maybe stainless steel lines as well. When the time comes when your driving skills outperform your brakes (your pads are fading, warping/cracking your rotors, boiling your brake fluid, etc.) then go for the BBK. But if you just have a wad of cash burning a hole in your pocket then I would personally go for a Stoptech slotted kit.

 

Currently, I'm on my second set of pads, using Hawk HP+ on all 4 corners and I'm using ATE Super Blue brake fluid. I'll be getting braided lines soon. I'm deciding whether to go Kevlar or Stainless Steel. btw, my car is an 04 MT6 .Sorry, I forgot to include my car in case of inquiring minds. If I do decide to keep the Brembo Calipers, I'll probably go with stoptech aero slotted rotors and project mu sintered pads or hawk blue pads on track days, and swap them out for HPS for street. The current setup isnt good enough, It still need a bit more stopping power; I could be overdriving them as I am getting faster, diminishing about 7/10 a second, every track day I attend. I dont want to find out that I am overdriving them and get a cracked rotor in event. Till then, a BBK is in question. Thanks for everyone's input.

 

Then ya, if you feel like your outdriving your Brembo setup then larger rotors with more heat capacity maybe in order. In that case a Stoptech 13" or 14" kit would do the trick along with a good set of race pads. Sorry, I thought you were on the stock non-brembo setup still.
