Brake Pads???

I think i'm gonna do cross drilled/slotted rotors all the way around & SS brake lines. What are some suggestions for brake pads?

Personal experience tells me Bosch ceramics. Good grip, quiet, fairly low dust and not too expensive. I know there are other bigger name brands around, but they will cost you typically.

it depends on what you want really. i wanted some amount of performance with quiet, consistent operation around town every day, so i went with Raybestos QuietStop pads. check out http://maxmods.dyndns.org/index.php?MaximaBrakePads for information on various kinds of pads.

by the way: i think the crossdrilled rotors are a little overkill, and possibly not effective. i have heard that they tend to crack. just go for slotted if you are into performance, unless you're just going for that look and willing to take the risk. i have the brembo stock blank rotors on mine and i have been very happy with it.

i also have the SS brake lines. those made a nice difference in braking performance. i highly recommend them.
