Default Brake optins & advice

I'll be needing some brake attention in the near future!

So was wondering, should I keep the standard Brembo callipers & go for the Performance Friction 2 piece disc & bell with Z rated pads up front & Z rated pads on the rear with OE discs at a cost of say approx £700 then I have to get them fitted, another couple of hundred I guess?
So not far off £1k

Or, go for the AP 330 mm 6 pot set-up, for £1750 ish fitted? (front only)
& PF Z rated pads on the rear £150 fitted, with OE discs.

Not sure how it would look just having AP on the front with standard Brembo on the rear Another £1250 for AP 4 pot rears!

Would the PF be just as effective, for fast road & the occasional track day?

I'm running a standard RB320

Any advice welcome or some pics if you have AP up front & standard Brembo on the rear.

Cheers Iggy

I've got the Performance Friction setup and personally, they're fantastic!! Money well spent!! There's a few people running these and a few running K Sport 8 pots!!

Initial bite is awesome and now I've upgraded the hoses they're even better

Godspeed was supplying, groving and fitting standard Sti discs and kevlar pads for £500 front and back not that long ago. An extra £100ish, not sure, would get you high performance pads instead.

If your on a budget that is.
