powerslot rotors are only $84/piece at tirerack.com for your car, or you can try ATE PremiumOne slotted rotors for $72/piece. Don't know anyone who's had the ATE's but if you google reviews people seem to like them a lot.

I'd definitely recommend slotted rotors, but keep in mind that your pads won't last as long with them

edit: found another site called raceinspired.com that seems to have a bit lower prices

I'm not sure what your budget is, but Brembo slotted rotors for the front @ Tire Rack are only $255 for the pair and $174 for the rear. Be careful when buying "brembo" rotors from some companies b/c they'll manufacture the rotor and slap on the brembo name. The brembos from Tire Rack are directly from Brembo...from what I understand. Goodridge brakelines are nice. I picked mine up for $110 on ebay. Pads i stuck with oem b/c finding a good pad was too overwhelming...theres so many different kinds of pads for different applications.

from my experierence:

I used slotted rotors wit hstock OEM pads, and they were pretty good with little or no brake dust.
Then I used slotted/drilled rotors with EBC pads and I really didn't notice a difference between that set up and the slotted w/ oem pads

Stopping was about teh same if not a little better with no brake dust

Powerslots with EBC Green Stuff was a good combo. Better than stock, no dust, lasted a long time, rotors never warped.

Now I've got Brembo blanks with Hawk HPS. I'd say a there's a little more bite with these pads.

Oh yeah I got Goodridge stainless lines too. Less squish is a good thing.
