Best Brake pads???

I just bought a set of Brembo cross-drilled and slotted rotors for my 89 240sx. What I was wondering was which brake pads are the best to use with those rotors for maximum stopping power? I mean when a guy goes fast he wants to stop every now and then.

I hear good things about Axxis Metal Masters. Pretty sure that's the name? Don't quote me 100% though.

Hmm,
YOu mean EBC. Tire rack pushes them, and hawk pads too. I was under the impression that hawk pads are better, and EBC green don't hold up to well under hard driving. However they do have a light colored dust so if you have light colored (read aluminum or silver) rims they won't get 'drity' as fast.

Axxis MM is what I just put on - never heard a bad rap on them. Best deal that I found is from buybrakes.com
