If on a budget and for show/ road use:

EBC Red stuff pads
EBC Turbo Groove Disks or OEM

If not on a budget/ track use:

Ferodo DS2500 Pads
DBA 4000 or Dixcel Disks
+ Cooling mods (Ducting)

If you have money to burn:

I have EBC Ultimax and yellowstuff pads on my daily driver. Got them when I got the Goodridge lines. Very happy with them.

I've found nothing wrong with B.I discs and Honda oem pads all round.

Dont know if they will fit your criteria but fine for me.

Hard to answer without knwing wwhether you use the car on the track. Honda discs and pads IMO are very good, and even ok on track really. After that your looking at dba4000 discs and ds2500 pads or dixcel kit.

I'm running the DBA4000s and ferodo ds2500 and found them to be really good they have a lot higher fade temps than the standard discs and pads

Copes with SC's extra power OK
Too many aftermarket discs fall apart for my liking
