I have an 09 G37x Coupe and we have the same brakes, 320/307 rotors. I just installed the POWERSTOP Z26 brake kit and it's very good. You'll need more brake part lube than they give you but other than that the kit is really nice and definitely worth it, carbon ceramic pads last way longer.
Pros: very good, long lasting
Cons: needs more lube

I've been doing my own brake job for a while and have used Bosch QuietCast rotors and Bosch QuietCast Premium Disc brake pads, both purchased from Amazon. No complaints.
Pros: no complaints, good quality
I inherited a 2011 cx7 from my parents who purchased this car new. They have always kept care of their vehicles. This is a non turbo model. Other than normal maintenance items they had replaced the AC compressor. Since I took it over in 2020, I replaced drive side front wheel bearing and passenger front caliper, brake pads all the way around plus normal maintenance items. 320,000km runs perfectly.
Pros: reliable, runs perfectly

Never scrimp on brake pads. However, personally I never buy OEM pads. Manufacturers just brand a brake manufacturers brakes and charge a premium for putting their logo on it. Get the part number and do your research to identify what brand the OEM part is. You should save money for the same brake pad. Otherwise, you could also save money by buying aftermarket pads by quality brands. Brembo, EBC, black diamond. You may find they are available, cheaper and better quality. Worth a look.
Pros: cheaper and better quality
Cons: premium for logo
Had my Fortuner front pads replaced, Brembo Prime Ceramic Pads: 3500 lang kasama na install sa Jiga.
Pros: Affordable, easy installation

Toyota Fortuner
Nagpalit ako ng brakes sa kotse ko last year, Nissin na brand, mga 2.5k or 3k isang piraso ung bili ko iirc. Di na ako bumili ng genuine, maganda rin naman performance basta reputable brand bilhin mo.
Pros: Good performance, affordable
Fresh front brakes, Zimmerman blanks with EBC Bluestuff, hopefully these do better than the yellows. Pedal feel with the Endless fluid was consistent as well.
Pros: pedal feel consistent

Akebono ASP1347 rear, ASP1346 front. Ceramic pads for the sport package brake system. They uhh, like to sing when wet though.

Vehicle:

Part number: ASP1347, ASP1346
I’ve driven roughly 150 miles and I’ve done EBC’s suggested bed in process. But they’re still squealing when I’m coasting from 0-40mph. The squealing sounds like the wear indicator rubbing on the rotor, but they’re brand new and nowhere close to the rotor. Do they take longer to bed in? The squealing is really high pitched and annoying
Cons: high pitched squealing
