It would help if you define "good". You can get perfectly adquate rotors and pads from any auto parts store. If you plan to autocross or road race then you need to step up to high performance. So, define your version of good.

I would use BrakePerformance.com for rotors, a friend put them on and they were fine. Their brake pads won't so good, they made noise.

Use HAWK HPS brake pads, you won't be disappointed !
