i'm guessing no one answered you because if you go with the stock rotor dimensions there aren't alot of options. this is why most go with a 1-le setup or a bear.

what rotors did you go with? why do you want a better caliper?

not sure what your getting at, but as long as you have the upgraded rotors and good pads in the rear your fine; it's the fron that make the big difference.

There's no such animal unfortunately. A different caliper wouldn't be much good without a larger rotor anyway.
