I own both Baer and Wilwood (not on my FR-S) brake systems and have done tons of installs of both on other platforms. I personally have nothing bad to say about either brand really other than Wilwood is a little more labor intensive in most application where you have to assemble just about everything since they are such a modular based product. On the flipside the modular setups are also a blessing. My personal preference between the two is Baer especially with their new stuff. I have tracked both but most of my track time has been on the Baer systems (NASA road courses here in AZ). The only real failure I have ever had was a brake pad failure made by another company whom I will not mention as I am certain it was just a freak instance. Only things I have had to do to either brand over the years is pads and rotors...... mostly lots of pads haha.
In regard to the OP I think the Wilwoods look fantastic and I am certain you will not be disappointed. BBKs FTW! My final choice for a BBK for the FR-S did not come easily but my choice has been made and I decided to once again support local to me Baer. There are soooo many great choices with this platform and how fast the aftermarket has responded is remarkable....
