i'd stay oem....the camry's adequite braking performance cannot be improved highly upon....it isnt meant to be a sports car
however, a set of ebc green stuff pads will add brake life, slightly improve stopping grip and cause less brake dust...i just use royal purple brake fluid, ebc pads all around and stock rotors...it may not be the most advanced setup, but hey if it works it works
hope this helps!

anyone tried autozone duralast rotors before? are they better than OE brembo's or no? for brake pads try out hawk HPS, or brembo's..i heard hawk hps produce low noise, low dust and they give 20-40% more stopping power

Are you still crying about being a dumbass with a engine damaging pulley and a money wasting Injen intake? I didn't think you'd hold a grudge against me when you're the one that's stupid.
It's too bad being the self proclaimed HID/Retrofit expert doesn't help you get your head out of your ass when you really need knowledge. You should get some slotted rotors too, it's makes as much sense as the other "performance" items you've done.
Hawk Ceramics worked for me. Low dust, good grip.
Enjoy your upgrades...I would say that it is a better way to spend your time than having your way with trees!

The EBC greens are not with the money, they will not last longer than the Factory pads. They stop a little better but they didn't hold up well and started squeeking/chattering/glazing as they got thinner. Go with something else. EBC has a history of quality problems in the not so distant past.
I hear Hawk often in the last year or two, I may need to give them a try again. I had a set of HPS on a different car and they needed a stop or 2 to warm up, that was not too great for a street car.
