Default Looking for a cheapish Brake Upgrade?

Was looking to uprate the brakes on MY97 STI Type R. Dont really want to spend 1500 on a big conversion but would like to get a second hand set maybe the Brembo 4 pots or a larger 6 pots or something. What is the best option to go for. The Brembo kits second hand are about 600 on the for sale section. Would this be a good choice?

The car is running 1.2Bar@310BHP. Mainly fast road use. Under 18' wheels.
-Currrenty running Black Diamond combi's with some kind of Track pad, only good when hot.

Are the sUBARU 4 POTS GOOD ENUF TO USE WITH JUST LARGER DISCS. If that is the case do you need additional brakets or something to help it fir. Any ideas on labour time would be good?
