Stock civic EX brakes (requires whole hub) are a nice upgrade.
If you dont feel like going that route, some nice brembo blank rotors with AEM or Hawk Pads make a great combo and a significant difference over worn stock rotors/pads.

Re: good brake set up. (berm)
Goto a junkyard. get integra front and rear brakes calipers and prop valve. Get some new roaters and the HPS pads. Your stopping power will be big pimpin.

Believe me, it is a big difference. Plus the cost of going say with a 99-00 Front brake conversion is probably around the same price if not cheaper as upgrading your stock brakes.
Brembo Blanks $80, Good pads $60 = $140.
99-00 Si Front Brake Upgrade $150-$175.
