RR certainly is an expert with his Nurburgring driving experience. Brakes will show their true nature under that kind of testing. I think most people agree that Stoptech and Brembo are both excellent quality brands, and I would probably look at the availability and price of replacement pads and rotors as the main factor in my decision.

Stoptech would be my choice. Great quality product, at a major discount over Brembo. It's also much easier to find pads for Stoptechs as the pad shape is very similar to those offered by Porsche, making availability and compounds a much better option over Brembo. 6pot front / 4 pot rear should get the job done.

I spent a lot time researching this and I went with Stoptech 6/4 355.

Both will be an improvement over stock, but I believe the balanced braking bias of the Stoptechs will offer better braking performance.
