05 6MT upgraded brake pads?

Does anyone know if there are any aftermarket brake pads/rotors for the 05 6MT coupe? My OEM brake pads are wearing thin and when I replace them I would like to replace them with something aftermarket that could be an improvement over OEM. I don't want a BBK or anything, just some upgraded brake pads and/or rotors. Anybody know of any?

Thanks,
Mike

Exclamation

Go with Hawk HPS.. Everywhere i went, they suggested only the Hawks. I really enjoy them over oem. More grip and less brake dust... a Little pricey, but i think they are worth it

HAWK HPS sucks ***! They have much less dust than stock but dont give any difference in initial bite. Project Mu has both NS and B Force pads for the new 05 caliper, same as 06 non Brembo 350Z caliper...

it would be hard to get less brake dust than OEM, on my 05 there has been very little brake dust. When I had my 04 there was loads of brake dust, however. Anyone else? The 05 caliper is different than the 04 so they have to be for 05, 06 calipers. I will look into the project MU, thanks guys.

Also, would anyone recommend any new rotors or just stick with the stock rotors?
