where to find brakes for an ae92?

Hey guys, I'm looking to put some better brakes on my ae92. Looking for something that would be as fade resistant as possible. Mainly for backroads and autox driving. I saw tirerack has brembo blank rotors and hawk performance pads. I was told by a friend that hawk pads eat at rotors. He also said brembo black slotted rotors are better. I've heard from a lot of autox guys that the brembo blanks are pretty sufficient. Think I'd still go with the blanks but wondering what other pad choices there are and where I could get them. I know pep boys sells ebc stuff, anyone know if they'r'e decent? I had axis metal masters on my talon and they were great once they warmed up.

bump. Think I decided to go with hawk hp racing pads and brembo blanks, along with SS lines. Thinking i may as well replace my 17 year old calipers. Any sugggestions on this? KOI has raybestos calipers and another parts place had nugyne or something like that, or i could get em from toyota for 50 a piece

What brand though?? I got Eurorotors from CT for about $80 a piece.. they don't seem too bad. I want either KVR or Brembos for my 90 GTS, I think they're like $120 a piece.
