What's this gibberish?
I'd say there's a ~95% chance that this guy has a car with a manual transmission, and without gross amounts of horsepower, since most S-chassis cars fall into that category. And if you're braking in a car with a manual transmission, you either A) put the clutch in, so the engine has zero effect on acceleration or deceleration, or B) downshift, in which case engine drag actually helps the car slow down. So, no, the engine isn't "fighting against" the brakes.
Think you need a brake upgrade? If you can lock up the tires, you need better tires first. If you can't, try getting some decent brake pads and fresh blank rotors first, and see if that's good enough for you. Unless you're going to be punishing the brakes to the point that they start fading (track), you'll probably be fine on stock calipers. They might even be fine with some light track use. I had stock brakes with blank rotors and Axxis Ultimate pads on my old S13 coupe, and it came to a halt pretty damn quick.
