The suspension isn't critical right away, you can get away with just sway bars. I wouldn't bother with a flywheel and clutch either unless you are adding power, or you wear the current one out.

Yeah - I've been wondering about how bad the balance would be with just fronts. Although the fact that people have been destroying rear rotors with just HP+ pads worries me. I realize that better fronts would lighten the load on the rears to some extent, but I still don't like going to a different setup than what AP or StopTech have engineered. Both companies really care about balance, so I'd tend to trust them if they swap both. On the other hand, they are trying to sell brakes...
