Some questions about Performance & Brake system

I have some questions on Increasing the Performance & Brake system:

What are the brands i should look for when looking to increase the performance?
What are the brands i should look for when looking to change the brake system to more stable and powerful one? ( I heard about K-Sport, EBC, ..etc)

Thank you all and waiting for the reply.

Norman street driving or track racing? That will help us answer your question.

For normal street driving, pads from Autozone and dealer OEM pads will suite 99% of your driving needs. If your going through rotors fast, something is wrong. Most of us who get replacement rotors go with Centric rotors/R1. Your pad choice can make a difference with rotor wear. Aggressive track pads can wear rotors faster than OEM pads. To be honest, search on eBay for "G35 R1 rotors" to get an idea.

In case of a dumb debadge, call the dealer with your VIN in hand and they will give you all the base info on your car.

Yeah, what about it?
What exactly are you planning on doing to increase hp?
What kind of increased hp are you talking about here?

Unless you're considering some form of forced induction or nitrous, you aren't going to be increasing your hp enough to require better brakes. The stock system is capable of handling it for "normal street driving" with the right pad and rotor choice. If you're looking for longer life pads, you're probably going to have to give up some rotor life or braking performance to some extent.
