wow, quite a setup you got there
back when I was reasearching tracking the Talon, I had heard great things for the Baer setup, especially considering the price compared to other "kits" for the DSMs. However, I never looked into making my own setup like it appears you're doing. One thing I will highly advise, upgrade your MC if at all possible. Even if yours can hack it, it can still be creepy to have a lot of slop in the brake pedal from a brake upgrade.
When I did the 240->300zx brake upgrade, my pedal would travel quite a ways before the brakes would even begin to engage, it would seem like you were hitting the firewall the first lap or two on the track, until the fluid heated up and expanded. Considering that in terms of # of pistons, our upgrade is the same (although you probably have more surface area), I'd highly recommend a new MC and stainless lines to go with the upgrade.
