Sure. The big one is the pads. The best pad available in our size is the hawk HT10, and only available for the front caliper. Not a "Great" pad, but it is the only high friction racing pad available right now. I'd guess that the DTC70 and PFC01, which are much better pads, will follow quickly this year. I will pair up the HT10s with Ferodo DS2500 in the rear, which are not racing pads, but have a higher MOT and friction coef than stock. I'd much prefer to run the same compound on all corners though. Pagid makes an RS19, but that's not a good pad for heavy cars in my experiance, they tend to crumble.
