big brake kit on a budget

My pads are pretty worn w/a few mm of meat. Just wondering what options I have for a big brake kit on a tight budget. Suggestions? Thanx!

Thx. I hope to add "warped fading mushy brakes" to my sig.

30mm 300z calipers, 13" Ford Cobra rotors, custom brackets, ss lines, hub rings to center the cobra rotor and some wheels to clear(needed to clear any bbk) Probably the most cost effective way to do it. Using the Cobra caliper might be even a better choice if fitment is okay. 2 piston vs 4 piston with the Nissan but better pad engagement.

can you tell me about the custom brackets?
Any specific year of Cobra rotors?
I think I'm good to go w/the rims...18" subzeros...looks like enuf clearance both ways.

I'm working on this. Most any Cobra will work but asking for a 98' year cobra 13" rotor will get you the right ones. Bracket must be custom. I few guys are working on it. Candiman has some hub rings for the rotor done already but I don't have them yet.
