I want to know just how good stock GT brakes are. are they actually decent? do they need alot of work? will a simple fluid, line, rotor upgrade and pad upgrade make them respectable?

i upgraded my st with GT disks in the rear and front... throw that in with steel lines and good brake pads and its a good combo. I also use dot3 brake fluid since it has a higher boiling point and wont cause brake fade as quickly.
