That is Ireland Engineering's front and rear big brake kit. The front is 330x28mm vented, cross-drilled rotors with Mustang Cobra 2 piston floating calipers. The rear is 310x20mm vented, cross-drilled rotors with Corvette single piston floating calipers.
I went with IE's because of the floating calipers, which sounds stupid i know. But because of my very deep dish wheels, fixed calipers would be hard to fit. I would have to run thick spacers but my wheels and tires are so wide that I would have fender problems.
In the future, probably within another year, I am upgrading to fixed calipers front and rear, my wheels will come out a bit more, and i'll have my fenders pulled (like the germans do).
Overall, I am VERY PLEASED with the brakes. The pads are huge and the pedal feels great with the 25mm Master cylinder and stainless lines. I haevn't been back to the track yet, so I haven't had the chance to see what fade is like (i'd imagine it'd be almost non-existent) but I can tell you that anyway who says stopping distances won't be improved with a big brake kit doesn't know what the hell they're talking about. I also have 235 series tires so my ABS doesn't even come on. And that's with MILD pads. Kit came with PBR metal masters which i still think are GREAT street pads. They BARELY DUST, i love that. But they do not bite that aggressively.
EDIT: Amaru, click my "www" link below my post.

EDIT: seriously though andre, how do you jack your car up, because i have to drive up on a 2x4 that has an end cut at an angle like a ramp just so i can get my floor jack under the car.
