Good Brake Parts?

Im about to replace front brakes-I need to do rotors, calipers, and the master cylinder. I was curious if anyone knows a particularly good source for parts, or any brands to stay away from - Thanks

Anything you get through NAPA or Autovalue are usually pretty good. Just remember, you get what you pay for. Don't expect a $10 set of pads to be as good as a $40 set.

car quest makes great parts. there rotors are like 40 a piece or so and their better pads(posi quiet) are around 30-40 bucks for the front usually.

Federated Auto Parts stores are pretty good, as long as you stick to the medium to high priced items. Not the lowend stuff.
