Default What brake kits are good?

i know that sounds like a stupid question since everyone tells me either brembo or ssbc but is there another brand that is less than $1000.

I want to do the front and back wheels...i have 17" rims

Are you building a car that will see track time?
Or is this for a HIN carpet queen?

Wilwood and Stoptech are both very good companies.
But since your life depends on the reliability of your brakes, don't go penny pinching for the sake of appearances.

I've always used brembo, i'm sure you can find a kit for under 1000$

No point. Get a Type R conversion. Bigger brakes than stock and 5 lug.
