You need to tell us what you intend using your car for first I.e some track work then people can recomend you and search first as I am sure there are threads on brakes / pads

search dude...heaps of info on brakes on the forum...what munya said + also depends what you're prepared to spend on pads, what rotors you're running (i'm guessing stocks?!?) etc...

definitely do some searches on brakes. Should get a lot more useful info than searching for breaks =).

I use ebc greens on my wrx, high performance brakes... Do not touch bendix brakes

they are not grippy and don't last long

My bendix ultimates gripped very well. I've run green stuff previously as well and frankly find little to no difference between them and the Bendix. Both are dusty and will fade on the second touch above 200 Km/h, they are on the lower spectrum of performance pads but are totally sufficient for street use. They're also relatively cheap.

I've got Ferodo DB2500 on the front and bendix on the rear with slotted rotors all round. Also Ferodo Dot 5 brake fluid.

track
i use P-Mu HC+/slotted rotors (front)
stockies (rear)

street
stockies/slotted rotors front & stock rears - never do enough braking at high enough speeds to warrant anything too extravagant on the roads

looking at upgrading rotors both front & rear eventually, but for now they do the trick
