Any brake pads to recommend?

I am thinking of changing the brake pads to something better. I need:
Value for money
Low cost
Low dust
Low noise
Better stopping power then stock (not asking much, juct better)
Where to install and how much?

Had a friend get mine when he was in Japan, have not put them up though but will do soon. It was about SG$350 for a set of front and rear.

I am using Endless CC-A pads ... some carbon ceramic stuffs.... no noise at all when new .. and only slight noise after using it for maybe 4-5k km on it ..... very low dust and the temp rated from the web page is actually very conservative ... the actual limit is close to 800- 900 c according to garage r after they have tested it on track. The bite is impressive but the only downside to it is maybe the price.... just the front is close to ard SGD 350 if I can remember correctly. You can get it from MB motor or Garage r but give them a call first ... they might not have stock for RX8 all the time. you might wanna consider...
