It's just the rear, leave the caliper and rotor stock. Get the same brand/type of pads for the rear that you get for the front and that should be sufficient.

If you have heavily upgraded front brakes, then get the rear brakes to match your front set. Normally you want to upgrade the front as much as your brakes budget allows, and then upgrade the rear with whatever you have left.
