Default 1994 del sol SI brake upgrade?

I just got a 1994 Del sol SI and it needs all new rotors and pads. I was wondering if StopTec was a good brand to do rotors and pads on all 4 wheels? I am hoping for a little better than stock stopping power.

I will be watching for the replies you get. I had a set of pads I really liked - nice and punchy, like if I wanted to stick things to the windshield, I could.

Those pads got thin and I replaced them, but the new pads are not as "sticky", they require more pedal effort. I really have to stand on them if I want a sudden stop. I don't like them.

I'm running Brembo blank rotors with Nissin pads (front), purchased from Ebay.

It stops fine with minimal brake fade. I also replaced all the old brake fluid with Genuine Honda type.

I'm not looking to do a full brake kit with callipers. This is my daily and im looking for better stopping power with minimal change to the braking system itself. I just plan on rotors pads and fluid. Just found out my brake master is shot...so new...upgraded one will be put in its place.
