I am not sure which brands to buy or from where. I was looking at nopionline.com and I saw Brembo slotted rotors for like 130 and axis ultimate ceramic pads for like 40. I am not sure where else to look to find possible better prices or better products. I want something that has no brake dust because right now my rims get very dirty and something that is slightly better than stock without spending too much. Also I was wondering if I should change my drums, I do not know anything about drums so any help is appreciated.

auotzone?

swap the drums for disks. I had a friend get the axix ceramic ones for his cobra mustang, and he destroyed them in one day at a road course event. Actually he went through his stockers in about 15 laps and the ceramics in about 40. He got them from napa i believe.

get the front brakes off a GSX. best bang for your buck. you'd notice much bigger improvement than if you swapped your rears for discs.

EBC pads.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.

First off you will never find a pad with "no dust" because pads are made to wear and in turn create dust. The best you can do is get a pad with a harder compound that wears less thereby creating less dust. Also some pads have a lighter colored compound over a standard semi-mattalic material. EBC's stop great and they have less wear but the best i have seen so far as far as low dust production are Hawks.

I don't want to spend too much money by getting GSX fronts or doing the rear disc swap. So don't get the axis ceramics? Would slotted brembo disks give it more bite?

Keep in mind that the pad material is what is giving you your 'bite.' Slotted/drilled rotors aid in cooling and venting the rotors to prevent warpage. Not needed for daily street use, but if you want them for looks, it is your money.
