I'm using the 180sx rotors as well but not sure what pads to get if i should just use altima or maxima brake pads? Any advice i need to swap out my shitty S13 brakes already!!!

95 Maxima (or other years from that generation). For example, the Hawk HPS pads for this application is part hb268f.665 (if you go through the Hawk catalog you'll notice the pad is from various other Nissan as well)

I have a Silvia which has the same calipers.
