Probably the Performance Friction setup with STi brembo calipers, unless you can find 2nd hand AP's.

Subaru Impreza 335mm Brake Upgrade Kit - Using Mintex 1144 or Ferodo DS2500 Pads
I ran these with Pagid blue pads
Much sharper than my Tarox 12 pots which I have at the moment LOL

You might wait a long time for some second hand AP's in the current climate 
The OEM 4 pot callipers are pretty good but just crippled by the OEM disks and pads.......hence my suggestion about the godspeed upgrade

Sitting in the garage is a godspeed big brake conversion for the bugeye with Pagid blue disks....
I'll post a few pics and if you like I'll send them down for you to fit
If you don't have a nose bleed when you press the middle pedal very hard I'll be very surprised
Cheers
