Replacement Injen Filter & Brake Rotors

Hey everybody. I've had my Injen Intake for almost 20k miles now and I want to replace the stock filter that came with the intake. What size/model K&N filter should I purchase? Also, my car recently hit 50k miles and I want to upgrade the stock Nissan brake rotors. I was thinking maybe slotted or x-drilled rotors. Which rotors are good and which pads should they be paired up with? Thanks for the help.

Powerslot rotors do well

Any k/n which fits the pipe and clears everything else will work just fine.

I recently put power slot rotors and Hawk brake pads on both axels for 440.80 sipped from Performance Parts Store. Their number is 440-473-0331. I found them on ebay. I have only put about 400 miles on them so I cant give you a lot of feedback on their performance, but they seem fine and look good. I also painted my rotors silver which add to the appearance of the rotors.
