Default Big Brake Kit for the S2

I was looking for a big brake kit for my ´89 S2. The kits from Hispec and Tarox are looking very good, but then i was told that a lot of PF members had some problems with Hispec.

Searching PF i find some god some bad about Hispec, not a lot on Tarox / Brembo but a lot on AP Racing.

It seems like the AP Racing people are the ones with Cosworths and not S2, so my question is:

Can you get AP Racing or Brembo for a S2 ??

Where can i find a Tarox dealer, that ships for Denmark ?

What size wheels do you have ?

Quite a few S2's have AP's fitted but most run bigger wheels
