Check out what the performance tuner sites sell - ie bimmerworld.com, turnermotorsport, vac motorsport, etc. They are the ones who know what is good on your car. Brembo is half-generic big brakes now-a-days. Sure they are great (and nothing wrong with them), but for the money, I'm positive you can find better.

I personally like the stoptech kit.

My vote goes to Wilwood. I've seen them on many heavy American race cars and sports cars and they give you the biggest bang for the buck. Also be sure to choose the correct pads, like Hawk. Porsche calipers are made for lightweight cars...not a good idea for a sedan.
