Well "big brake kit" can mean a lot of things, in this case it means just that...they're slightly bigger brakes than the current ones.
Those appear to be OEM calipers, probably from a Mazda 6 or something. They're either OEM Mazda or aftermarket and can be found at pretty much any Autozone for ~$80 + core each.
These guys picked some up, painted them gold, picked up a pair of cheap rotors and labeled it a big brake kit.
The real BBK's have custom purpose-built 4, 6 and 8 piston calipers.
