OEM pads are best for the Street.

Low dust, no noise, excellent performance!

Also, you've got an '02 so if you haven't changed the brake fluid personally, then it probably hasn't been done. You should go ahead and consider doing that. I hear that the Super Blue stuff is great performance wise but the change interval will be higher than OEM. It's your call there...

Yes i need rotors, and ive never done the brake fluid, so ill be doing that too. Should i still get OEM pads if im going to do auto-x? I want something thats going to last a while, but give me good stopping power. Also im thinking about stainless brake lines, i hear they are pretty much useless unless you track the car, is this true? Thanks guys.

I just had the stoptech stage 2 kit installed about 2 weeks ago, it has slotted rotors and Axxis Ultimate pads, the braking has def. improved.
