Brake Pads and Rotors

I need new Brake Pads and Rotors. For a 1993 RX-7.

What are the best ones I can get?

I definately wanted to get ventilated rotors but with so many out there, I would like some input from the talented folks here.

Thank You.

Nadeem

For stock brakes on a street driven car, I like Centric rotors and Axxis Ultimate or Hawk HPS pads:

I have tried axxis ultimates (which i believe have been replaced by stoptech street performance) and hps hp+. They all fadded within a few laps. Now i am running ebc yellow and have not fadded my brakes on a 20 min track sesh. The reds will have more bite but the yellows will last longer
