If you had the money and wanted a front end brake upgrade what would you choose. Brembo's "F-40" 4 piston caliper system, or one of Wilwood's systems. Their site wasn't very informative and only showed one system for vehicles that weighed over 2800 lbs.

I don't believe that Wilwood has a specific application for the Maxima. Brembo has one but it's through Stillen I believe. I don't know that any brake system is worth $2500. Some of the wilwood kits out there are available for for nearly half that. Wilwood supply calipers to professional race teams. I suspect their product is as good as, if not better than Brembo. Also, keep in mind that unless you are truely racing the car, it might not be worth it to get a $2500 kit unless you have money that's burning a hole in your pocket and you can't find other things to do with it(like investing or soemthing).
