01 Brake upgrade options?

hey guys,

I just fitted 22" rims to my 01..revealing all the yucky old brake parts and also rotors are getting worn..sooo

I checked out Brembo big brake kit but price tag is a little more than I want to spend...stoptech maybe? any recommendations out there?

thanks
Stefan

For a good price you can find 4.8 brakes and rotors, get stainless steel braided lines and flush the fluid

Where can you get 4.8 brakes and rotors? What all is needed??? I'd be interested in that upgrade. Are we talking old 4.8is (E53) or 4.8 (E70)??
Thanks
