I've got 20 groove discs,I just need new pads front and rear.Greenstuff are expensive and in my opinion not worth the extra cash over some ordinary ones.

You can get redstuff aswell, which is better than green, as green are normal pads painted green IMHO.
Yellow are nice IF you can get hold of them. Ring EBC and ask for discount, say you are drifting/rallying/sprinting/racing it. I've got 50% discount before

Speaking of brakes, is it worth getting uprated S12 rear discs 'n' pads or will plane jane do ? Presume the rears don't do all that much in real terms ?
In the context of something like S14/Z32 front calipers and apropiate discs.

Mine are rusty as hell and constantly squeal, despite constant emery-paper clean-ups.

z31 turbo rear discs would be good, they are vented.
