What to do about my brakes??

My pads and rotors are going so its time for a replacement My car is an 06 sport with 190000km.

What should I do for brakes? im a student on a budget so should i stay OEM? Z1 has a full upgrade kit (lines, pads, rotors fluid ect) for like $500. I think i saw a thread on stillens too. Or is it worth it to save up an extra 5-700 for a BBK?

Im not tracking my car frequently. Maybe once or twice in the summer just for fun. Other then that im just a spirited driver i do love the look of BBK's but is it worth the price if im not tracking it?

What should I do for brakes???

Thanks!

IMO The BBK is just going to be for the bling if you don't regularly take the car on extensive work outs. lol

I would just stay with something more regular and reputable.

Are you in Canada? (I ask because you indicated km instead of miles). If so, I buy all my parts (rotors, pads, suspension, etc) from AutoPartsWay:

http://www.autopartsway.ca/index.cfm

They're Canadian and shipping is free. I've compared their prices with RockAuto

http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php

and RockAuto parts are cheaper but once you include shipping, AutoPartsWay comes out lower. They carry all the good quality items like Brembo, Beck & Arnley, etc.

Hope this helps.
