Of course, we'll see once everything is installed if my reasoning in reasonable.

Yea, I'd like to take my car out to the tracks everyonce awhile, not to really compete, but more to drive and have some fun. I'll have a 120Hp type IV motoro done soon and need to stop, plus been looking at rotarys for awhile. And who knows what the future holds.
The main problem I saw with the stockish disc brakes is that they were still single planed rotors, no vents. They will still stop you, but in a daily driving situtation inwhich most new car on the road can out stop you I figured bigger is always better when it comes to brakes.
