I kept stock rotors and just upgraded the pads to EBC RedStuff. From my internet searching, I determined that rotors weren't worth it unless I planned on tracking the car, which I don't. Someone else mentioned noise in comparing Red vs Yellow, and that was part of what swayed me toward Red (I think Red also has a longer life and/or less dust).
Stoptech + EBC reds is a pretty good option for street.
I upgrade to EBC yellow stuff and R1 Concepts drill and slots rotors,ECS tuning brake lines and Motul brake fluid. Very pleased,definitely recommended setup
I run EBC Redstuff pads and they’re good enough for regular driving. Way less dusting than OEM pads.
Oil and filter change, switched to motul 4100 15w50 (thanks Bernardo on the recomendation)
New thermostat, 80°C so the water will circulate throw the radiator well before its over 92°C, that made the coolant temp much smoother, never goes over 92 now, and never lower than 87°C. Adding a new water pump also helped, just to be safe.
