i'v always liked the look of the PVM stuff (i think thats the one). or maybe it's 2 bros. real light lookin carriers with unusually short rotor surfaces. as in 3/4in instead of like 1+1/4, or whatever they are. hey, what the hell is the point of radial brakes?

A lot is in your preference. The EBC race rotors and pads have outrageous initial bite. And they stop well as well. Some guys don't like the initial bite. If you are not used to it or have good brake control a tap on the brakes upsets the suspension. The other issue with the EBC is they rust like hell.
The best combo I have experienced is Brembo calipers, rotors and mastercyclinder. Absolutely the best combo. That said they are big time expensive. I personally run Brembo calipers, Galfer Wave rotors and Brembo Master. The Wave rotor does not have the initial bite of the EBC but they give good control and tons of stopping power.
If you are looking for a good bang for the buck, I would look at a Brembo master cylinder, EBC rotors with the stock calipers. The PVM stuff looks cool but I tend to look at the race track and you just don't see them much.
