do you need to upgrade rear's to 13" so the car can actually TRULY stop better?

thanks!

well if you were getting some calipers too. but I dont think its that great a deal if your just using stock calipers and with brackets and there rotors. If you want some nicer rotors etc. just get them and save a lot of money. but I dont think this is a great deal or anything since your not getting the added break power of the upgraded calipers and extra pistons. but just my 2 cents.

it might not be the best kit, but yes.

You can find the Bear Gt front kit for around $1000, and the rear kit for around $500. Depends what colors you want. I'm not sure what the stoptechs sell for. I know the brembo cobra front kit is available for around $800. I think Roush and Saleen kits are fairly expensive. You also need to consider big brake upgrades require 18" or larger wheels.

Do you plan to road race this car? If not forget it and purchase some performance parts. You will be a happier camper
