Default New Brakes

So tomorrow I am going to go in and put my money into a new set of front brakes. I am going to go with the Baer Decela-rotors. They are a drilled and vented design, and they are backed by a 3 year gaureente against cracking. I am curious as to what pads to use on them. I hate green stuff, but I am open to all other options. I don't know whether to go with a carbon, semi metallic, or ceramic? I dont know what will give me good wear and not eat my rotors? What do you think?

I had a set on my eclipse gst, which was lighter, and I wasnt impressed at all. So i dont want to put them on a heavier car.

Default RE: New Brakes

So got my rotors today...they look hella sick. Does anyone know if you can use cobra or bullit brakes on a gt, and do you need anything else for the conversion? I wanted to go with the relocation brackets and do the cobra rotors but oh well, Im poor. Does anyone on here use braided brake lines or know anywhere to get them cheap. I am running the twisties with a few AWD turbo cars, vettes, and cobra's.... so i need all the help i can get.
