    Well, it won't weigh much (if any) more, and the laws in this country prevent your travelling faster, so my thought would be that you really don't need to.

          Computer upgrades add lots of weight with all those 0s and 1s. That is why older laptops weigh more than new laptops. Its all the info you have put in them

          If you are driving much the same, then no problem. At best, you could look for an r32 set of brakes on ebay.

            If the current brakes are giving problems then you might wish to fit better brake pads, better quality rotors, higher boiling point brake fluid & braided brake lines but if it aint broke...
