I use Akebono brake pads in my Outback and Corolla. I am very happy with it. You can read the review at tirerack.com or amazon. The brake pads are very quiet. I use ATE slotted rotor on my Outback and Centric rotor on my Corolla. Centric is a lot cheaper. Stopping distance seems to be better with Akebono pads and Centric rotor combination. This is probably because Corolla is a lot lighter.

Looks like they used a Subaru after all - a WRX!

I'm not familiar with the Raybestos but it sounds sort of generic.
 
Raybestos (circa 1902) is a year older than Ford Motor Company. Raybestos doesn't sound as generic as Ford.
