I have a question, since we're on the subject of brakes. Since my car isn't mildly modified, I'm looking to replace the brake pads. What would be a good brand to get, or should I just go with cheap pads?

Generic parts store pads are just fine for every day driving.

I just don't believe or see how this is going to decrease stoping distances.

More braking surface == more stopping power
more stopping power == less stopping distance
Lets not get into things like tire wear, weather conditions, etc. Because those are the same things that effect any brake setup.
But again, I'm not suggesting that everyone rush out and buy these things. Have a big brake kit for your front? Get em. Want more grip for your ebrake? Get em. Want a bigger rotor to fill up your JDM tyte wheels? Get em. Want more stopping power for your rear brakes? Get em.
These aren't for everyone. Heck, a lot of you might wanna wait on them until we get the front kit done so you can do all 4 wheels at once.

Bumping up to see if anything ever got built for the front brake upgrade. Rears are available here:

For anyone wanting to know the importance of addressing brakes wholistically I suggest you read the following. The fronts DO NOT do all the work.
