From what I heard (Oem sized) Brembo blanks, stainless steel brake lines, and Aem pads are a good setup. I have stock brakes now but that is the set up that I would go for. Yet I think others are running this set up. You could also do a rear disc swap from an integra. It really depends on how much you want to spend.

im happy with my brembo/AEM mix right now, though i wouldnt get slotted/drilled again cuz it isn't really necessary.

the fade from 90mph is waaay better now than it was with stock, but it still isnt great.

i believe it was an AEM/Nissin project together, rather than one or the other.

boy, i cant remmeber, but i think my rotors were 50/ea

cross drilled and slotted aid in cooling and cleaning. they remove the dust that causes the pads to slip, and they route the heat to the center in order to attempt to keep the pads cooler.
