one thing you need to consider with a brake upgrade is the change in bias.

I'm running an ihi vf24 turbo on my 4agte and stopping power is crucial & on a car as light as the AE86 there are many options. I'm in the process off upgrading to series 4 rx7 brakes/calipers...no modification of the proportioning valve is required...the only modification i have done is upgrade the master cylinder to a slightly larger ae82 item. The rx7 calipers arent that much larger than the AE86 so fluid displacement remains similar

Another popular option where i come from is an s13 180sx/silvia upgrade...the s13 struts are a direct fit and give you slight neg camber which is ideal for drifting...parts/maintenance in this area is easier and cheaper due to their availabilty

i've also heard of ae92, ae101, toyota crown, ma61 supra & r32 gtr upgrades to list a few. You shouldnt be deterred by the stud pattern either...its a simple task to redrill & restud. Mitsubishi Sigma studs are good for this

the t3 brake kit is overkill in my opinion...far to heavy
