It seems like everyone wants bigger and better brakes.

So what is the real difference between upgrading the stockers with better rotors, pads, brakelines, and fliud vs dropping a bundle on a big brake upgrade?

Those big brake kits cost a byndle. Im just seeing the cost justification for a street car, now if you are an autocrosser brakes make a big difference.

Mostly it's just for show.

The bigger brakes might help you if you're doing road racing on a course with extreme turns at fast speeds. You don't need big brakes for drag racing(obviosuly you can't slam on the brakes when you're doing 100+ without skidding out of control) But other than that they are a complete waste of money.

There is no justification for a street car. You're exactly right...

exactly why its alot cheaper do just get new rotors (like Powerslot), pads, and maybe even lines.
