Check with vendors such as Excelerate or HeelToe for rotors and brake pads. They should get you what you want and need.

Check the sponsored section. The new sponsor is BrakeMotive. I just purchased a full set front and rear slotted / drill rotors for my 03 TL-S. They're actually really good.

My stock rotors just got re-surfaced about 2 months ago and they were shaking when I brake. After I installed the new rotors from brakemotive, it was so smooth and sharped. You can do it yourself as well, there's a DIY on how to do it. Save yourselves some money. It's one hell of an investment.
