Honestly it is not worth the money. The standard Cooper 'S' set-up with the solid 7.5" discs and two-pot callipers are totally adequate unless you are doing very long distance racing. Just make sure you have the best quality pads. I use the Carbon-Metallic ones from Mini Spares in my 'S' rally car and they are simply fantastic from cold right through to the discs glowing red hot. Use AP600 brake fluid if racing/rallying.
