Default brake recomendation

I'm currently running the 91 EX front brakes w/ axxis ultimate pads and brembo slotted/crossdrilled, earls SS lines, and stock drums in rear on my hatch.

I hate how my rotors/pad combo dust my rims and sides of my car(REALLY REALLY BAD, have to clean it twice a week). though stopping, pedal feel, and fade all work awesome, I want to try a different setup to elimiate the dusting. obviously I'm switching to std face rotors and I want to add a crx rear disc swap.

so what pad/rotor combos are peeps using? what still gives an enhanced feel/performance? no stock autozone crapola either.

If you have your stock brake booster, and the booster is good, use a 90-91 Civic Sedan EX 15/16'' Master Cylinder. If you need a new booster, get the booster and MC from the 92 Acura Integras.

Pads, um, try to find some low dust pads, they may not perform as well as the pads now, but they are good. I got mine at Pepboys.

As far as the disks in the back, it will dust your wheels. The drum doesn't really dust the rim, but the disk in the back will, but not much.

Axxis claims that their ultimate pads are dust free even for slotted/crossdrilled, but I found out the hard way that this isn't true. I may still use the same pads but switch to std surface rotors. but what about fade? stock replacement rotors are horrible with fade and warping.

and the main reason I ask about the MC is it is leaking slightly where it bolts up to the booster. as far as I know the booster is good.
