I really don't want to go down the route of big brake upgrades, mainly from a cost point of view, however would like some suggestions on whats good stuff to use discs/pads wise.
My first upgrades of course will be braided lines, higher rated fluid, anything else simple I need to look at?
I would however like 2 piece (floating) rotors (discs as we call them in the UK!) front and rear, so suggestions on manufacturers of who to look into would be good. I keep seeing Akebono all over the place but I have never heard of these before.
Also pads wise, the car will still be used as a road car not a race car so some compromise between road/track is needed on this front.
Any suggestions from experience would be fantastic.
Thanks

You are looking for DBA-5000 2-piece rotors.
They're about $600 US for the front pair.
Also, look into STILLEN brake ducting.
Those are non-caliper-related upgrades you can do.
