I've been thinking about brake pads myself recently. Reports on the EBC Green/Red pads seem very mixed. Blueprint pads seem to be quite well-rated and have low dust. Mintex also seem to be recommended a lot. I personally wouldn't get OEM pads purely down to the dust they make.

IS200 Turbo project now just about complete ! See my thread here and leave your comments.
Now running standalone Syvecs ECU and no stock ECU !

If you want to go outside the box,

Endless pads are highly rated by the supra boys.

as are Hawk pads, which i have personally. Neither are cheap though.
