Brake caliper WILWOOD or Brembo
I have 2006 porsche cayenne turbo calipers on my r32 skyline. It's a simple bracket that allows you to use 370z track rotors. The calipers are 6 piston brembo units. They were 100 CAD each at a specialty wreckers.
Pros: inexpensive, 6 piston
Vehicle:
Nissan Skyline
I'm running the '14 STI front/rear Brembo calipers with DBA slotted rotors and EBC Yellow pads with steel braided lines. And Motul 5.1 fluid. I can pretty much out brake everyone in to the turns at the track or touge.
Also have Porsche 997 GT3 brake cooling ducts installed (yes they fit). I have zero heat/fading issues. The brakes can do hot laps for a full 20mins track session with no performance lost.
Pros: superior braking, no heat issues

Subaru Impreza WRX STi
Z33 Track Pack 324x30 front rotors + CTS-V 4pot Brembos and adapters. Z33 Track Pack 322x22 rear rotors + Z33 2pot Brembos modified to fit S13 knuckles.
Pros: modern look, good function
Vehicle:

I run these calipers and track my s13. They are great. I heard from other racing guys that the 4 pots make the pads wear in diagonal; they switched to the 6 pots ans it solved the issue. They run slick tyres, i only use UHP. I use DTC60 from hawk. I have custom made brackets and hats, with 315 x 32mm rotors.
Pros: great performance, solved wear issue
Cons: pads wear diagonally (4-pot)

The rear brakes are 16v rear discs and willwood 4 piston calipers up front from tech53.
I had a friend with those 11” rears on his mk3. Nice upgrade when paired with his 312 Brembo boxsters.
Pros: Nice upgrade
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I've been running the brembos with ss lines, wildwood MC, stoptech rotors, hawk pads and dot 4 for years. And I run hard. 0 issues.
Pros: zero issues, reliable performance
Vehicle:
Nissan
I put willwoods on my track/autox supercharged NB. They are great, the extra grab, and need to use less pressure is great. I highly suggest the upgrade.
Pros: great grab, less pressure
Vehicle:

I have an 04 W8, ill say this. Get a BBK from Brembo or someone. The front calipers are way to wide and large for what they would do for a smaller car vs the cost to make them work.
Cons: calipers too wide and large
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Jeez I paid $350 for my brembos to be rebuilt, plus an extra 50 to have the scratches filed out that I made trying to get the pistons out myself :x
Cons: difficult to rebuild
