Looking to upgrade the brakes. There's a lot of options out there for a GenII. I'm wondering what do you racers use?
Another vote for Tom's 40mm rears. I did the StopTech front-only big-brake upgrade before I did Tom's upgrade and so i don't know if just the 40mm's would have done what i wanted. but with both, i'm quite happy.

Joseph, did you have to run a proportioning valve?
Negative. That was one of the conditions of my running them!

Hold on now. Tom's rear upgrade for Stoptech fronts is different than his rear upgrade for stock fronts. Best talk to Tom about your application.
Actually, they are the same.
Tom told me otherwise. I've got Stoptech fronts and Tom said the rear upgrade was a different bore.
Ok Tom, that clears it up. Joseph and I have two different Stoptech fronts.
You should read all the nasty emails JD and I sent back and forth to each other over this.
This one... except I didn't show your combo... oops.
I've shown Stoptech calipers alone (where Chuck was) and that 38mm rears (only) were equivalent to Stoptech fronts (only.) OEM fronts calipers plus 40mm are shown. Stoptech fronts plus 38mm rears (Chucks combo) would be on top of the OEM plus 40mm dot. Joseph has ever so slightly more rear bias, but still on the stable area.
