Depends on your budget.
For starters, and no to break the bank, you can always go for Black Diamond Fast Track, paired with their discs, ScoobyWorx is probably the cheapest place to get from.
I use their pads with stoptech discs, with good results.

Cheap standard disc blanks (pagids etc) - Project Mu hc 800 pads - braided lines - Millers 300 plus fluid.

I'd give the calipers a good health check though as the Subaru 4 pots are synonymous with sticky pistons.

Sprinting hare jdm for the pads, import car parts for the discs/lines (fuji racing lines available from there which are manufactured by Goodridge) and fluid from opie oils.

If you have budget for a big brake kit I can recommend the Ksport 8pot 330mm set up.
I've had it on my classic for a while and a massive improvement over the standard 4pots. I tried all sort of pads on the 4 pots but they always faded after a few laps and pads wore out at an alarming rate. Mainly because the 4 pots are iron and dont disipate heat.

Currently running Performance Friction Z-rated pads, which are road legal. Great bite, take serious abuse and barely seem to have worn down after 3 track days. Well worth the money.
