What brake pads to get?

I think my brake pads have worn down in my CRX Si. Which pads should I replace them with? I don't want them to be too expensive. I might just take it out for auto-x once or twice, so I'd like a little better than stock.

some carbon kevlar racing pads would be nice...or some raybestos from autozone

Get metal masters... (Axxis, Beck Arnley, whatever)... semi-metalic. Replace the rotors at the same time with new. They're cheap enough to just replace instead of doing the re-surfacing. Plus, if you do both at the same time... no screeching...

EBC or hawk, don't get "racing" pads for street use.
Rotors - Brembo blanks
If you don't choose to replace the rotors, make sure to have your rotors machined. Otherwise your pads will wear quickly, not to mention brake vibrations and pulsations.

I personally have had problems with the ebc greenstuff brakes. Hawk are great as well as Metal Masters.
