Stick with the OEM brakes and rotors.

I'll agree with Indy and Sub Zero.
I've got S&R's cryo'd slotted fronts with stock pads, ATE blue that has been in there for a while and the pedal feel is so much better than stock.
In spirited driving the pedal feel stays strong and steady.
I just wish I knew it would be that much better when I got Honda to replace the backs for twice the price S&R charged.

I like the OEM setup, all I did was have Jeff cryo my rotors. I have an 02 with 48K on her and the brakes are like new still

I don't like drilled or slotted rotors, more surface area= better braking. Want cooler brakes? Vent 'em.

Hawk HPS pads, motul and stainless lines. Blues or better for track days.

i always imagine drilled an slotted to act more like a slice an dice on the pad material.. granted not exactly, but you get the idea..

If you're sticking with OEM power, stick with OEM brakes. Everything else is just bling.

I'd disagree. brake pads and fluid make a substantial difference.
