There is nothing wrong with the stock suspension. It's a bit floaty and requires a bit more driver patience/forethought. I still have plenty of fun with stock suspension single turbo cars. Not in the same way I enjoy my JRZ-equipped car. Both are fun but in very different ways.

Brakes, on the other hand, tend to get worked pretty hard with 600+bhp as driving habits tend to change a bit. Performance brake pads are an absolute must if you want to avoid those "Oh Sh%t" moments. These cars get to triple digit speeds in a heartbeat and you find yourself braking harder and more frequently on the road. The stock pads can't handle it.
