I'm currently running just a basic brake setup.....

Hawk HPS pads
Brembo OE rotors
Goodridge SS brake lines
Ate Super Blue fluid
SS SpeedBleeders

These pads dust like a motherbitch though, and this is only their street pads. I'll be looking at some different pads next time when it comes time for replacement. Why don't you do a rear disc conversion first?

Anybody heard about REMSA pads???

I'll have to change my pads soon and that is what they want to sell me at Honda dealership besides the OEM Honda pads which are way too expensive...

If yes, are they OK or are they crap?
