on stock caliper, I recommend these
Girodisc Front rotors
OEM rear rotors
EBC Yellow pad front, rear
SRF Castrol DOT4 brake fluid.
I just recently did a EBS red stuff with EBC slotted rotors package deal and I've been super happy. Reduced dust, only a squeak or two when wet/super cold, and bite is much improved.
For added stop on high heat, I use EBC YELLOW STUFF pads.
Akebono Ceramic pads and EBC rotors (slotted if you're feelin frisky). EBC pads are fine too, but a lot of people experience noise. Akebono pads are just super solid and problem free.
All the time. I usually go for Akebono Pro Act pads, and name brand rotors like Raybestos, etc.
I buy everything parts related on there unless I need something the same day then I buy locally. I stick with Akebono brakes for all my cars and they’ve been good so far. For rotors I just go with a well known brand that has painted hats to avoid rusts.
I have Akebono ProACT in front and OE at the back. All good.

Akebono will make a slight noise when you shift from drive to reverse to drive and vice versa as they are a tad smaller than the OEM.
I'm going to shit on EBC HH. They're popular, easy to get, and somewhat better than OEM. But they suck ass. Every time I need more brake power they fade. Every time I want the brakes to bite they just shrug and I feel like I need to clamp down. Progressive riding? Sure. Emergency braking? Hell naw. Need to cut speed for sharp corners? Good luck. So I've switched to Vesrah and never looked back.
