Agree with Brad, you'll only upgrade again later on, and they wont cost you much more than 1400 16v (Sports)

if you're gonna bother uprating your disks, the next in line should be the 2.0 ate calipers and disks .

anything less is a waste of time.

yeah, even the 1.6 Sport calipers and discs are crud, even though they are the same width as 2.0 ones, ATE calipers are so much better.
