I think there is a brake upgrade, but why do you want it? In my opinion, the Gen III's brakes are one of its strongest points. Now I guess you probably want cross-drilled rotors? I don't know who makes those, but there a lot of people who have installed them on their Gen Is and IIs. I bet you can use those or at least the same brand they do.

Baer brakes have kit to make the front end 13 in duel piston calipers... and beafer rear discs.

The cross-drilled rotors don't come highly recommended. There's been tons of stories of them disentegrating due to the stresses caused by drilling the rotors.
If I were you, I'd look at either the Baer brakes (pretty spendy) or look at a super high quality rotor/pad combo in the stock size.

You can also use the Cobra brakes as well, but it involves some sort of modification to the caliper bracket I believe. Glen Murdock has them on his Gen III SHO.
