Inexpensive brake kit for '05s?

OK, so I know that "brake kit" and "inexpensive" are rarely heard in the same sentence... but... Does anyone have any suggestions for a (four corner) kit for the '05s? I'd love to have the visual appeal and fade resistance of the Brembos, but I don't have $4000+ to put into a brand new car!

Thanks for any thoughts...

You might find some brembos off a wrecked G or something.

Hey that is a good idea where do you think some one should go for finding a wrecked G? What about a wrecked 350Z would that also work too?

Any opinions on any of the various commercial kits? Can any of them be had for less than $3000 or so?

Try taking a look at Wilwoods or Stoptech. I don't know if they make a kit for the '05s but I wouldn't think it would be any different than the '03 / '04 setup. Did you do a search to see what people are running?

why not just add some slotted rotors and some pads, I think thats more than enough for most people, unless you're doing some serious racing or running huge horsepower.
