For me I found the lack of intial bit was just with the rather conservative oem pads.
DS2500's and especially Performance Friction for the road have much more bite, and you clearly know where you stand with the car.
Braided hoses help with the feel for really hard braking, you don't get the mushy/soft effect when you really really need to feel what is going on..

The brakes on the GTA are great but dont get much initial bite.
