Default EK ITR Conversion - Question about brakes

Quick question to those in the know. I have a 99 EK Si with an ITR swap but at present standard discs and pads.

I was wondering whether upgrading the discs to Brembo's and changing the pads to PBR Ultimates would be enough to deal with the increase in power the ITR swap provides.

The car has been dynoed at 208whp and does the spot of occasional track work (admitably this engine hasn't seen any track work as it's still being broken in)

Otherwise what else would you folks suggest ? I dont really want to go down the five lug route.

Cheers,

- Prob

Thanks man, is the pedal feel vastly improved with steel lines ? I hear thats the case from a couple of people.

Un-related question but what exhaust you using on your swap ?

Decisions, decisions
