What is your need for "performance" brakes? Do you regularly track the car? Just street driving? Do you think you need to upgrade the brakes or are you looking for replacement parts? Do you need rotors, calipers + rotors, or just pads? Your post is very vague.

Cross-drilling is NOT a performance item and is, in fact, a VERY BAD idea for any kind of hard braking.

Wouldnt it be expedient to just get some good pads for the stock calipers/rotors on a FD unless you were seriously doing some endurance racing, anyway?

I've heard the FD has great stock brakes, and Ferrodo/EBC brake pads seem to be great on tons of cars with stock brake mechanicals.
