Just to chime in here... Bigger brakes aren't really going to change the braking distance greatly... The big thing about larger rotors, venting and slottinh is the fade resistance.
If you want harder stops, by some good pads with good strong initial bite. If you're never going to see track time, save your money. It's not like you're going to almost get in a wreck 10 times in a row one after the other like on a track.
One more thing, I think it was said before. Tires make the biggest difference in stopping distance anyway. I can't even get my ABS to kick in with my 275/40 Kumho VictoRacers (treadwear rating of 50...) on the car... I can brake from 130mph down to 45mph or so without the ABS kicking at all. Get my 245/40 Bridgestone Potenza's back on and it's an ABS nightmare.
Just some useless food for thought...
