So far the Brembo GT kit is the only kit out. One of the best things about using Brembo products is that since they're the biggest manufacturer, every single brake manufacturer will make pads for their stuff.

One of the issues running AP stuff is, even though they get support from pad manufacturers, not everyone will had pads. You'll have less selection of pads. Now if you want to run a pad from a certain manufacturer, they might not have it available. Then you'll either have to beg them to make it and wait or have it custom kit will cost you more in the long run.

Off the shelf stuff is generally cheaper and readily in stock so that's an added benefit.
