Brake pads

It's looking like I'm going to be doing front brakes on the 75 as 120 miles in the mountians this afternoon kinda made it clear they need to be done. Slightly warped rotor I think as the steering wheel vibrates under heavy braking but is fine under normal braking.

I'm going with a new set of the stock brembo rotors but whats the skinny on brake pads. I was hoping to hold out for the moss ceramic but they dont have a clue when they are going to be available. Are the ebc green stuff pads any good and how is the braking compared to the stock pad? Better or worse? Also how is the dust? I did change the pads a few years ago with the stock pads moss offered and the dust has been horrible and I'd like to go more than 50 miles without needing to clean the wheels.

Question; I know that TRW usually sells top shelf parts, at least they did in the past, but where are their MG master cylinders made that make them any better than the Chinese junk? Are they made here? PJ
