Default Need a brake upgrade

I have a 95 EG DX coupe. I heard that GSR calipers swap on, but never saw anything on this swap, but if anyone has this how much better did it stop, cause i am thinking of going willwood, or baer, but not sure, i am not a newb, but i don't know **** about brakes only going foward quickly not so much about stoping, so ANY info would be great, experiances, prices, where to buy them, anything will help, and btw I did a search did not find much so maybe this thread can help other make decions as weill THanks for any input guys...

my car wouldnt stop for crap with my cx brakes with the itr motor. so i swapped to gsr bb, m/c, prop. valve, and the 4 disc conversion with EBC greenstuff pads and it stops more than i need. it was a good invesment. i spent about 850$ all together for everything.

it depends on where you look
the best bet would be a local junkyard

im gonna give a little advice tho, if you just upgrade to GOOD pads, new rotors and some fluid with a high boiling point, it should be all you need

im running axxis ultimate pads, ate superblue racing fluid and brembo blank rotors.
it stops hella quick
