    andy.....can't go wrong with the bear decela rotors, I know a lot of guys running them on our cars. They are the brand I plan to go with when my stockers go bad.

    As for pads, Hawk HPS seem to be the ones alot of people go with.......

    Good luck!

    I'm using the OEM Brembo blanks and OEM pads.

    I've autocrossed on them to the point of boiling the paint off the rotors and calipers and they are still vibration free under braking. I use the OEM pads because they offer good bite when cold as most of my driving is casual and not "spirited". They are also silent which is a big plus to me. I ran Hawk pads for a while with the same rotors and was not impressed.

    Just avoid "swiss-cheese" rotors.
