Scott there front twin piston 298mm kits from $1450 up to 4 and 6 piston kits from $3650.The rears are generally left alone but fitting slotted rotors and better pads will improve this.

Parts only and braided lines are a good idea as they do not flex and break down like the rubber ones do.

These are not a PBR kit and the kit is not ADR approved.Once fitted you could get an engineers report done and this 4/4 kit runs rotors from 300mm.The fronts are around $4000 to $4500 with a similar price on the rear as there is alot of work to be done with mounting them and the handbrake set up as well.
