brake pads what are you using? and how do you like them.... I'm thinking about going back to the TRD pads.. unless one of ya'll know of something better?

I went with the Raybestos performance (slotted, drilled) rotors and (composite) pads because I could get them for cheap. Yes I did notice a non-placebo increase in stopping power. Yes it exposed how terrible my tires are.
The most notable thing, however, was that braking is much less mushy after having driven for more than 5 minutes. That is, the rotors/pads are less hot. Can't compare it to other performance parts though, this is my first go-around.
