If your only upgrading your brakes for visual reasons then the worthiness of the upgrade is purely subjective and is your call.

If you want to upgrade for street driving then a stoptech kit is overkill. Better pads, fluid, and maybe stainless steel lines are all thats needed in general.

If you want to upgrade so you can hammer the car out on the track without fading your brakes and cracking your rotors then yes, a stoptech kit would be well worth it.

I have a 13" 4 wheel kit from stoptech (st-40 front, st-22 rear) and with lines, fluid, pads, everything shipped, I spent under $4K. www.czp.us is where i bought it from. talk to Coz. czp.us is a site sponsor so I don't want to post the price I paid.

I wish they made these for the 05s.. They would be a nice upgrade instead of doing the 3.5k for a BBK. Read they were decent on the track, less fading than the oem ones...

you can just get the front 13" bbk.. works great for me.. a lot better than 03-05 OEM brakes (brembo or non-brembo)..
