I used WinMax and Stoptech pads to replace the stock pads after my first track sessions. I also flushed out the stock brake fluid with a higher quality fluid. So far the best results with pads are the WinMax W2 and Project MU brake fluid. The stoptech brakes don't seem to perform as well as the W2's but the W2's create much more dust with everyday use and are more aggressive on rotor wear but wow they perform very well for everyday and track use. The rotors are not expensive so it's worth it in the long run.
