tirerack also sells a stainless brake like kit. i feel like the stock rubber lines are a little spongy. i have used the hawk gps that tirerack sells on several trucks with great results.
while i cant say what the braking is measured on a flat sticky track i can tell you on the rough wet detroit like seattle roads my pathy out brakes anything in town. ask my hitch it gets hit every time i romp the brakes.

I never did a before/after test, but I can tell you that the AP Racing big brakes offer a tremendous amount of stopping power, especially with the added weight of a front bumper, winch, sliders, and skid plates. Honestly though, if you're planning on keeping the Pathfinder stock, the OEM brakes are hard to beat.
I got front drilled and slotted rotors and powerstop pads all around for $90 on ebay a few months ago. The rotors came pre-warped for my convenience . Had to get replacements but seller was understanding. Everything is fine now and I drive it like it's stolen. The new rotors are louder when breaking hard but they stop much faster and no warp (yet).
