I recommend checking out StopTech's line of Brake Upgrades for your vehicle. Seeing how you are needing replacement braking components for your vehicle, why not upgrade at the same time with better performing parts, at significantly reduced cost of OEM equivalents?

I wouldn't cheap out on something as important as brakes. Remember they are a safety critical part of your braking system.

As always, for more information and other members' suggestions.

Feel free to shoot me a PM / E-Mail or call if you had any questions.

StopTech SportStop Brake Rotors
StopTech SportStop brake rotors are made of an alloy developed from the material used in StopTech's patented AeroRotors used on StopTech Big Brake Kits. This material offers superior cracking resistance due to thermal stress as well as increased initial bite and improved wet weather response. These rotors are OEM diameter for a perfect replacement fit and offer OE or improved vane design where possible on all rotors. These rotors are offered in slotted and cross drilled varieties.



StopTech Stainless Steel Brake Lines
StopTech Stainless Steel Brake Lines provide a quicker pedal response, maintaining consistent brake pressure and precision brake modulation, especially during threshold braking. The stainless steel braid provides support for the Teflon and the weave is extremely durable against incidental impact and abrasion.



StopTech Street Performance Brake Pads
StopTech Street Performance Brake Pads are engineered to meet the demands of high performance driving while maintaining the refinement and comfort expected in everyday driving conditions. These pads combine the benefits of premium street brake pads with aggressive friction formulas suitable for track day and autocross use. These pads offer increased bite, less fade and less dust than OEM pads. A good replacement at an excellent price.

The braking power.
My previous HPS experience was abt abt 3-4 yrs ago on WRX brakes which then I changed to Axxis Ultimate. Love the Ultimate better than HPS except the dust also Ultimate is known for its fast initial bite.
So I've been using Ultimate on several cars till I figured out Stoptech makes their own compound recently.

Now that I've tried Stoptech I think it has better braking power than HPS, more dust than HPS (but not as much as Axxis Ultimate) but of course not as good as HP+

Ultimate used to be the best value on pads before other than the dust but for some reason the price has gone up.
The stoptech seems to replace the Ultimte now in terms of value
