For rotors, probably anything. We used Raybestos R300 rotors on the Raybestos Camaro build and raced with them quite a bit last year.. No warping problems. Also used their Element3 pads.
On my 82 TA I use Performance Friction Carbon Metallic pads, they're really good for street and autox in my experience.

The 05-06 GTOs used a vented rotor that I thin is close to the same thickness as the solid '04 rotor if you are upgrading.
