Hawk HPS ?? part #

So i've got about 2-3mm in meat left on my front pads therefore i want to change but i want to upgrade this, napa set up sucks! i wanted to go for hawk hps and when i go to the autopartwarehouse there are 2 diff sets about $1-2 diff which one do i order for my 4th gen. Do you guys know the part number?

My second question pertains to rotors. i have done my search and the consensus is that for daily driving the hps pairs really well with brembo blanks. Are there similar rotors to these that doesn't cost as much but provide an equal stop as the brembo. i could also purchase a set up used power slots from a friend who used them for about 4-6k and he claims it isn't warped for only 60bucks/ pair. Paired with HPS does it provide a superior braking perf compared to a blank rotor with hps. What do you think guys?

thanks

tim

I don't know what is going on with that website showing two different front brake pads for your 99... When I did a search for 96 it only listed one set of fronts, the $63.82 ones.

As far as rotors go - I purchased some name brand expensive rotors for my first set and didn't notice any difference between them and the cheapo rotors both on the street and on the track.

Yeah they are the same that's why I can't figure out why that website is listing two different versions of the same pad at a $1 difference.
