Granted its partly price and of course I'd be very happy to jump right on the APs, but I am actually interested to see how much can be done with the stock calipers. I'll probably sell the stock BBK and get AP's sooner than later...$$

Installing this weekend:

Goodridge SS Brake lines
AP Racing Fluid
Stillen J-Hook Sport Rotors
Stillen Metal Matrix pads

After a while I'll be installing Carbotech pads for the track. I will be using temperature strips to see just how hot the brakes are getting.
You should get the AP's for sure. I will post pics when I get mine on! I like the j hook rotors

Edit: If you get a BBK you can save on weight by losing the spare, since the bigger rotors may not fit that little spare.
