I use Hawk HP +. They work really well once they are warmed up a bit, although they don't suck when cold. One bad thing is they produce a shitload of dust, so consider yourself warned! My next set of pads will probably be the Hawk HP Street, because they work better cold, stop pretty well warm, and dust a lot less. The only advantage of the HP+ is the warm stopping power, which comes in handy somewhat during auto-x and even moreso for road racing. I get mine from http://nipponpower.com

axxis ultimates. I had generic semi-metalic pads before, BIG difference. Great all around performance and nice price. GET em from COBALT on herr. Official provider of brakes for honda-tech and great all around guy. He'll answer any q's you may have as well.

I'm using the AEM pads - I like them a lot, I seem to be able to brake harder before hitting the threshold/locking the wheels (not that I do this regularly, but DC traffic blows). Seems to be a bit dustier than OEM, but I'll live.

a friend of mine is using the project mu brake pads, he says the work well but honestly they give off more break dust then.... well they give off a lot, he has bronze gram lights in the front and they look black 50% of the time i see him, ps they are the street application pads
