Audi S3 brake upgrade

Hi to all members,
l need some advice please with the following,
l bought a S3 new in September 99,it's covered 28,000 gentle miles &
apart from two new tyres fitted a couple of thousand miles ago,its all
original.
My problem is with the brakes,they do seem to pull me up ok,but there's
lots of travel,not much initial bite,they seem to fade easy & generally do
not inspire confidence,certainly not good enough for the full preformance!
l am therefore,seeking advice for good reliable set ups[direct replacements] that will regain my confidence.
Apart from that,its a great little beast thats been very reliable & fun!
