You can PM Slick Rick and Airsport for more info on the Wilwood set up.

just a quick question, why do u wanna upgrade? for bling? or track?

are you having problems with brake fade?

you would be surprised at how a good set of pads + good brake fluid would help if you are having fade.

but if you are doing it for bling, you'll have to ask someone else

I found changing to Panther + pads and super blue fluid made
a big improvement. After four sessions at Summit Point they felt
great.

Our front 12.2 inch kit will reduce about 20 pounds of unsprung weight off the front end.

Stoptech kicks ass, but they arent made for the S2000. I believe there was only two production kits ever made. Stoptech uses a porsche style caliper at least for the audi/Vw braking systems. Their standard 4 POT power is killer! PLus, being that they are a US company rebuilds and parts are easier to get than Spoon.
