I have the AEM/Nissin pads. They don't squeek. You just have to install them the right way. Minimal brake dust, better grip. However, they need to warm up a little. They work better than OEM ones when they're hot. That is, when the OEM ones start to crap out, the AEM/Nissin ones keep on going and going and going. Sorry, couldn't resist.

Anyone got a good price on the pads? And do you guys think it would fit in with brembo slotted & cross-drilled rotors?

The best price I found was at Options Auto Salon

Yes, I have both the AEM/Nissin brake pads and the Brembo cross-drilled & slotted rotors. Check out the Mega DIY Thread in the Tech Stuff forum and look for my DIY.
