Default brake upgrade complete

ordered Brembo blanks and Hawk HPs+ pads from colleti

Put em on and flushed the brake fluid with fresh stuff (dot 4)
car brakes much smoother, better pedal feel (from new pads + fresh fluid)
I can feel the increased grip from the pads

real worthwhile brake upgrade

the brembo blank/solids were $28/ea + $10 shipping ea... the pads were like $70 sumthing i forget the exact price.. I got it over a year ago... and the brake fluid I used was Valvoline Synpower DOT 3/4.. you can get that at any autoparts store for like $5 for a tall 1 liter bottle... and about 1 hour labor..

heres the procedure if you need it:

you should think about upgrading your lines to less flex resistant ss lines. your brakes will feel much more solid.
