That's such an expensive upgrade that, if there were other options you wished were on the car, it might be less expensive to order a whole new car.

Keep your Reds. They are great brakes. If you really want to upgrade get the Brembo GTR setup

I agree, but I think you can get Brembo GTRs for the price of the PCCBs and they are better brakes I believe.
