yes larger brakes not only dissapate heat better, but they do give better stopping power. Tires play a HUGE role as well. the money you might spend upgrading stock shit, you may as well get Z32. I got Z brakes 3 years ago, and theres no better/cheaper way to TRUELY upgrade your brakes.

upgrade stock:
if you buy SS lines, theres $120 at least
slotted rotors $100 (drilled I wouldnt recommend)
good pads $50
S13 (automaic trans) brake master cyl $75

theres Z brake territory already............
