are you going to be doing and auto-x or anything like that or is this strictly a DD?

I like Brembo blank rotors regardless of application and use. They are a very good replacement rotor.

For pads, on my Accord (that was never auto-x or anything) I put some Carbon-Metallic pads on the front and rear. Got them from AutoZone and they had a lifetime warranty. They felt good, low dust, etc. Nice pad for street use IMO, not sure how it would hold up in an auto-x but thats not what I was using it for so...

I have all brake parts from autozone. Rotors are duralast front and back. The front pads are duralast ceramics lifetime warranty. In the rear I have Morse fully loaded calipers with ceramic pads with lifetime warranty. I have had the car for over 3 years, the pads still have over 50% meat left and the rotors are still excellent. They have never squeeked and I have close to no brake dust on the rims. Bear in mind I drive like a nutcase too.

Not to jack the thread, but I'm going to need to change my brakes before auto-x season, any suggestions for good pads that will stand up to auto-x abuse?

Note: I've already decided to go with brembo blank rotors
