My stock brakes are worn and I need to switch them off now. What kind of brakes do you guys use or recommend?

Power Slot, Brembo, EBC, Neuspeed all make good rotors......

what break pads you should get is dependant on what you want from them......

Longevity? Go with harder pads like Stock or just about any pad availible at a parts store, they should be able to help you there.

Performance........ what level of performance are you looking for?

for Street use and Autocross theres......
EBC Break Co
Hawk Perfomance breaks
Porterfield Racing Break pads

All of these companys make Racing pads too.

Just remember, If you tires arn't up to the task then you still arn't going to stop any quicker!

I just picked up a pair of brembo cross drilled and slotted rotors, axis metal master ultimate brake pads, and russell SS brake lines off of groupbuycenter... go checkout motorgroove.com, i think the aem pads are like 45 some bucks.. good service.. but go through the groupbuy for rotors cause it's cheaper..
