This is a problem that plagues stock Grand Prix's as well, right down to a T. You should see the complaints about it at the NHTSA website, not to mention the grand prix forums. I'm convinced it's a pad compound issue, because people with anything other than stock brakes or pads just never experience it, and if it was a "wet rotor" issue it would be a more universal problem across more cars and more braking systems, but it isn't.

Slotted rotors are purported to help, but if I were you (and unless someone comes in with a more scientifically sound answer) I'd get a different kind of pad.
