Default brake upgrade?

I didn't know where else to post this so if its in the wrong spot, I'm sorry.
Got an 02 rcsb with the list of mods down below being performed mid march. I'de like to upgrade to better bigger brakes. Are there kits out there or will some from like a camaro or corvette swap over?

Awsome, the current brakes are just about ready to be needing a change so might as well tackle that next weekend. Thanks alot. I feel like a kid in a candy store. Have not had the chance to spend booko's of cabage on my auto's in years. Thank gawd for my ''divorce might happen'' savings found. Thanks for the info. I'll be sure to look into both.
