Post Big Brakes

Yep,

If you just intend to drive the car on the street with a stock engine, then you don't need Porsche brakes.

I have had the opportunity to drive a 911 RSR at a tune and test day and I can definately say that those brakes were AMAZING....huge 4 piston calipers and crossdrilled, vented rotors...

I think that the 993TT setup may be overkill but not in Alex's case (2.6L t4)..and in my case, I'm going to be running in Drivers Eds with car clubs on race tracks....and as I plan on eventually turning my bug into a GT4 race car...I will need these brakes.

Even the 944 N/A brake upgrade is overkill if you are just going to be driving on the street. I think you need to decide on what kind of driving you are going to be doing and what kind of engine you will have....and then decide on the brake system....but upgrade the brakes and suspension before the engine !
