When I did mine I found some PowerStop kits that were both rotors (slotted,drilled and slotted, or just drilled) and pads for $150 on ebay, If the rotors are still good and money is tight I would say turn the rotors and good pads are just fine

Rotors are rotors unless you spend the extra and get drilled/slotted.... Other than that just spend a little extra and get decent pads rather than the cheapest ones on the shelf and you will be fine!!

along with upgrading pads/rotors you can step up to stainless steel or the kevlar brake hoses. This would help in giving you a firmer pedal which would increase braking power. Good luck
