just look around in here. they have some pretty sensible kits. http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/...tegory=Braking

I believe the OE replica kit would be good. bigger rotors, and TT carriers for more clamping force. Get some pads and SS lines and you should be good. Unless you wanna go for stoptech/brembo type stuff.

the fronts are what really matters. That's where all the weight shifts when you brake. You could get a front kit, then maybe just get some good rotors and pads for the back.

I have a pair of Boxster calipers I'm looking to sell with pads and retainers. PM me if you're interested. I was going to piece together a kit but I don't have the money anymore (new cat conv's and back).

I calculated you can have a complete boxster setup for under $900 if you DIY.
