The faster you go, the better your brakes should be.
There are no exceptions. Honestly, if I see someone who puts thousands into their vehicle and does every mod imagineable but brakes...I don't think they have a clue what they're doing.

Not sure, but they shouldn't be skidding in the first place.
Don't you have ABS?
...just realized how stupid my post was.
I'll just leave it here for everyone to have a good laugh. 
You have the stock brakes though?

Most of the braking is down at the front end, obviously due to weight transfer. I would check your ABS though. I assume the light isn't on or your not getting a warning?
Does the light come on when your "skidding"?
I'm no expert on brakes by any means, but I would check these basic things. I'm sure someone with more knowledge can help you out soon.

Get over it TMG quit being an idiot.
It was an example, and a good one at that. My car is such a pile of **** to you yet it has bigger brakes. OK
