I never had a 13" kit in the front, but I did not find the 14" X 1.10" with FNSL6R caliper to do well at all in terms of longevity, pad transfer, and pedal pulsing. This is what all the kits in the past couple years have been to the best of my knowledge. The "beefier" 14" (and even 15") kits are a recent development with more fitment pain due to wheel clearance. Better to deal with the pain once, however, than repeatedly do brake jobs.
We'll see how the 14" kit with thicker rotors and Aero6 calipers does.
