I have said before that the stock GT6 brake setup is about as good as you can 
get even for a race car or a hot street car. I agree with the wisdom here, in 
that your issue is likely related to glazed or inferior bads. The race pad 
options need to get really hot to work well and would not be great for the 
street in my opinion. As already suggested Ted should have a pad that will work 
just fine. Some time spent with the pads you have might be a free fix. No need 
to change any of your other components.

Hi.
 I'm looking to improve the brakes on My GT6.  I currently have stock
brakes with nothing special pads.  Dual master cylinders with 5/8 pistons
and balance bar. Rotors are drilled . The car will stop but It seams like
it takes some serious pedal pressure  and if you want to stop NOW you have
to push with all you've got. I think the balance is pretty close as the
fronts will lock up first but I just feel like something's missing in the
brake department. This is a street car (for now) I have considered ceramic
pads but really don't know if that would help or not. Any suggestions would
be appreciated.
  Thanks. P.J.
