+1 but you will have to mod either the caliper or the bracket since the spacing is different for the pads to sit with the rotor....for ex: on the 05 636 obviously you can use the stock rotors and calipers, but if you swap a set of r6 monoblocks on you need 310mm rotors (+10mm more) i would assume the same here so that can either make for a bigger big rotor kit or shaving down on caliper/bracket...

would the fti bracket accommodate the 310mm rotor and r6 monoblock with no trimming, or extra spacers other than the ones provided?

FTI RADIAL (always see these confused with a dual quad) bracket is made for a busa rotor, not too sure on the size for that (definitely not 310mm though, something like 220-240mm?). The spacers are decently sized, so I'm pretty sure a caliper with more spacing (r6 monoblock) would just require a smaller spacer.
I like motodoc's setup, but you have to mod your own rotor to make it fit, and I don't own a motodoc bracket so I don't have any experience on it. FTI is just bolt on, but Bill@FTI is kind of busy nowadays so I'm not too sure on availability.
