I disagree with the BBK.. everybody says bigger brakes are never a hindrance but I disagree to an extent. Threshold braking big brembos and a very aggressive brake pad is easily one of the more difficult things to do, and for a newbie you'll have all the confidence in the world but you won't have the slightest clue how to make use of all that braking power. Stock brakes, HP+ or similar pad, and ATE Amber or something similar.. and you'll have good brake power as well as the ability to learn threshold braking.

Also keep in mind a BBK with the use of factory tires will overload the ABS. It will take more time to stop if you're overworking the tires and causing ABS to kick on.
