Try some ATE super blue fluid, Axxis ultimate pads (or panther plus if u dont mind a warm up period) and braided lines and see if u still think u need better calipers..
Rotors are wear items.
Get the cheapest rotors you can find.
For a nice set of pads, IM "cobalt" on this board and he'll set you up with something.
A word of caution though:
You may want to learn to drive before you wrap your car around a tree one day.

Get a good brake fluid like others have mentioned, but I don't feel that lines are necessary.
Good fluid and pads is all you need.
But that still won't stop you from hitting a tree.
im not gonna hit a tree i no my limit an i no the cars limit is alot farther then mine an i dont intend on finding the cars limit untill i become more expierenced with the car
I'm agreeing with Reid on this, Learn the car and how to drive it correctly FIRST!
The stock ones are really nice, I mean really fuggin nice- Do you know the ITR is in the ten best stopping cars for the US?
that has to say something, right?

You don't pick and choose when you're going to find out the car's limit.
If you know better, than go to an autox, where you can learn to control your car at the limit in a safe environment.
We don't need to lose any more ITR owners. Learn from the mistakes of others.

"no" should have been "Know"
speaking off auto cross im goin to one tommarow , at fedex field in dc

Drive your car as hard as you can, and go past the limits in a place where it won't kill you.
When R&T had the break downs in the back of the magazine back when, I looked and compared all the cars...
And It was written up about this not to long ago.
but don't you agree that 112ft from 60 is great?

everyone is trying to give you a education like you dont know how to drive, probably just cause your question is a little broad
do you want to track the car?
what is your budget?
if you want better braking: i.e. more control, can feel what the brakes are doing, able to withstand high temp from repeating high speed runs
I would say getting pads and fluid
axxis ultimates are a good street pad with little dust and low noise
panther plus pads are an aggresive street pad that does excelent on the track, but make more noise and dust (hardcore racers dont care about that stuff, they just wana stop fast)
most brake aftermarket brake fluid out there is good
i use ate super blue, castrol also make good stuff
mugen and some other companies make larger diameter and thicker rotors if you want to keep your stock calipers. it will give you better resistence to "brake fade" when your pads/rotors get too hot they start to lose braking ability
please do a search as well, you can call andie at cobalt frictions

For "weekend fun" on public roads:
- OE Rotors (Brembo, Autozone, OE Honda - doesn't matter)
- Axxis Ultimate or Ferodo DS2500 brake pads
- SS Braided Lines --> SKIP and save your money
- Valvoline Synpower or Ate Super Blue or Ate Typ200 brake fluids
* Cooling ducts or removing the OE rotor shield if you abuse your brakes/car
You can do front rotors (Colletti Motorsports or NAPA or Autozone), Axxis Ultimate front and rear pads, and new brake fluid for under $200.
