For street use honesty the Brembo brake set up is more than enough as the base brakes will work just fine for street use. The only way I would upgrade the rotors and brake pads is if you either plan on attending a track day or your rotors and brake pads really need replacing. I would keep Brembo blank rotors and get Carbotech’s or similar you will like your brakes.

If you're only concerned with street use, get the Z1 Master Cylinder brace and their stainless steel lines. Really good bang for the buck and will dramatically improve braking feel. No need to waste your money on 2-piece rotors and aggressive pads that will dust your wheels and make noise. If anything buy some slotted rotors to up your "street cred"

1521 pads for street use and XP12/10 for the track days. Good luck.

You can only stop as fast as your tires, save your money. If you don't mind the noise, I have some great race pads available They can lock your brakes up every time.

Your stock rotors and pads are plenty good for street use. Don't bother wasting the money.
