If you're referring specifically to Dave's Big Brake kits, you'd have 2 options:
Dave's Viper Shop
DVS-002 or DVS-002A
of course either of those would also require DVS-004 and DVS-005
You'd also be on the hook for the calipers and rotors required for the kit you chose, as well as installation.
I'm in the process of installing SRT-10 calipers and 14" front rotors on all 4 corners of my 2001 ACR using his kits if you have any more questions.

I have the SRT brakes on front and Gen II fronts moved to the rear on my 97 GTS. I am running 2001 OEM 18" rims. I also have EBC dimpled/slotted rotors.
I also have 1/2 inch spacers on there. Not sure if they are mandatory but that's the set up on my car.

Leslie,
I did that swap last year and kept my 18" stockers. Spacers come in the kit from Big Dave's setup. Here is a quick write up ...

Have a GenII, if I want to upgrade to a big brake kit will my stock wheels still work? (2001 GTS wheels)
Trying to figure out how big a can o' worms I will be opening
Great write up. Here's another one in the Illustrated Section, but Leslie already knew that being the ubber moderator that she is.

You're limited to 13" rotors with stock wheels right?

With stock wheels, you can go 14" upfront and 13" in the rear, 13". Same size SRT pads all around.

I believe you can go 14" rears with the 18" ACR rims...
Fitted a few of these kits now and they are first class.....

ACR wheels will let you run 14's front and rear.
Othewise, you'll need SSR's, CCW's or Forgelines made to accomodate the 14's front and rear.
Nice set up.
Installed it on my 01 GTS ACR
