like the guy above said. you don't need cross drilled/ slotted. goto autozone. buy better pads if you want to stop better, I like my axxis ultimates.

Call and talk to Andie and he'll help you out per your needs and application(s).
Other than that The Axxis Ultimates work nicely as an improvement over stock.

Cobalt GT-Sport pads are probably what you'd want. They're the best daily-driver type pad Cobalt currently sells -- awesome stopping power. If you're concerned about squeeling, though, you may want to consider something else. The ones I've used have squeeled like crazy. I didn't use shims, though, so that might make a difference.

Cobalt's website is http://www.cobaltfriction.com, and their phone # is 877-562-9237. They're down here in Fort Lauderdale, so you should be able to get stuff pretty quick. And be sure to mention you're from Honda-Tech so you get the discount.

Autozone rotors will do just fine, and they're cheap, too. The ones I got for the LS were like $22 a piece, and I think the Type R ones run around $29.
