I really am looking into getting large brakes (355mm) front and (345mm) rear brakes put in, but im trying to find the best combination of stopping power and at a good price, a Brembo gran turismo package i found for 3000 for front and back is the best ive found so far...any ideas?

Big brake kits for street use are for looks only (or if the rotors are drilled, they actually reduce durability of the rotors compared to non-drilled).
Now, for -track- use where you might brake from high speed 20 times in a 5 minute period, they will reduce brake _fade_. But for normal use? 0 difference.
So if it's not for track use, buy whatever seems to be of good quality and looks the way you want it to look, since that's all it's doing for you. Brembo and Stoptech (the F-sport makers) are certainly good brands.
