You might likely find that, stainless lines, new more aggressive pads & shoes for the rear, resurfaced drums, and new rotors up front, and some fresh brake fluid may provide even better results then just an OE 4 wheel disc setup.

I prefer the Hawk HPS pads, I've tried most to bigger name pads. I think the HPS pads definately have the best bite (if seeded in correctly), plus way less dust then the EBC's. I never noticed any improvement from the AEM pads, but they have hardly any dust.

Unlike MrChad, I did notice a great improvement with AEM pads. I love them. I had them with my OEM rotors and now my slotted.
