Default Is it worth upgrading v6 brakes?

Is it worth upgrading the V6 brakes with GT calipers and Powerslot rotors? My brakes seems fine. I'm planning on adding a new rear end and a supercharger, but still? Any advice? Thanks!

the v6 isnt realy heavy enough to need the bigger ones. if ur gunna upgrade suspension and etc. why not, im gunna swap mine out with better ones, mostly for the looks, but it doesnt hurt to have better brakes, incase the unfortunate happens and u need to stop asap. but i think you should be fine even with the v6 brakes.

your choice really. i'd love to upgrade my brakes, i have foudn that upgraded brakes help in may situations, as does extra power, and better grip from better suspension. Plus if you race, god knows how helpful that can be. But again, its all what you want to put your money into
