I ran ABT drilled and slotted rotors at the dragon in NC/TN. I didnt take it easy on the car at all and they preformed perfectly... the TRD pads gave off a helluva ton of dust but didnt have any fading or overheating, and the temps at the last run on the hellbender were close to 700*

Personally, you can never go wrong with an OEM manufacturer like StopTech. They supply about 60% of the OEM's world braking components. So, you know their stuff is quality for sure.

With respect to rotors, if you don't want to break the bank, go with an OEM replacement or Premium.

If you have more coin or need a better bite, go slotted!

Pads, I personally like the StopTech performance pad. It may be overkill for most, but less dust, excellent bite and minimal fade.
