best big break kit?
No S2000 experience with anything but my wonderful 6 piston caliper Wilwood big brake kit. I was extremely happy with the price, right in line with StopTech, cheaper than Brembo. They do for sure make the car stop better, even go as far as to say superior on repeated harder stops than stock. So far have had no quality issues, so I'd say they are fine there too. Call Sherwin @ Brake Zone as soon as his health comes back to him and he can help you out.
Brembo experience is non-S2000, but a 700+HP Supra TT and a 700+HP 3000GT VR4 at Road America where the Brembo's were great, especially stopping hard into Canada corner and turn 1 at over 150MPH, always seemed to hold up very well, but in both cars the Brembo 14" drilled rotors were chewing up the Pagid race pads pretty good, not really any fade until the last couple laps (Motul RBF600 fluid used in both cars) but they were being pushed extremely hard.
Be prepared to have to use longer wheel studs with both Brembo and StopTech, the Wilwood 4 piston fits everything, and the 6 piston fits a lot with no spacer needed, 3mm max. is what I've seen so far, but that will NOT require longer wheel studs.
So I give Wilwood
based on personal S2000 experience.
Good luck in your search, I believe you will be happy any way you choose to go.
