Default AP big brake kit or Stoptech......both used any thoughts on....

Which system is better for the money? I can get the AP for $1000 and the Stoptech for $1500.

Both kits are just the front and include the 4 piston calipers and the larger rotors, upgraded brake lines and the pads.

They are both used and relatively low miles on the kits (less than 10K). I will be doing very little driving on tracks for at least another year. I will have no car payments then and I will track it after that.

Thanks in advance!

Given the price difference, I would do the AP brakes.

AP brakes are also lighter than Stoptechs.
