Hi, this question has probably been asked before... but here goes.
I'm looking for a brake kit with better calipers and rotors. I have a 2013 BRZ and the stock brakes really didn't like stopping the car from 130mph. Now that I have done my LS swap and I'm not even topped out at 155 and the stock brakes are scary. I don't do track days or drifting, just generally fast street driving with an occasional high speed run. Not looking to put another $4k into the car just for brakes, so is there a decently priced upgrade?
Thanks!
