Annoying Where to buy post - shocks, brake stuff

Hey all. Sorry 'bout the OT post, but like everyone else I gotta stretch my dollar as far as it can go, so any recommendations on cheap shopping?
Looking for:

Koni Yellows
Axxis Ultimate rear brake pads
AEM front pads
Rotors, any decent brands.

koni's- try extremepowerouters on HT i got my yellows for him for 475 shipped. modacar was having a sale just after extremes ended also i don't know if its still going.

do you REALLY need performance rear brake pads? i'd pass and go with something stock on the rear. and AEM pads i have no idea. but civicrr can get you cobalts with the 10% HT discount along with great customer services.

rotors- just got to kragen and buy some cheap blanks they will work just fine, there was an HT sponsor selling brembo blanks for a good price also

Are you going driiifting? (higher coeff. in rear pads than front)

Anyway, Ultimates at http://www.Carbotecheng.com; AEM at http://www.jcwhitney.com (yeah they suck, but they're cheap).

I have a 2000 Prelude....

Better pads in the rear is for dialing in some more rear bias - my fronts work too hard.

Will check out your suggestions, thanks. Anyone have more?

Yeah, on a car with ABS that doesn't seem like a horrible idea. The DS ITR I drove had P+'s all around and it was fan-flippin'-tastic but I'm sure my Si without ABS would just drag rear wheels all the time with P+'s.
