so i've got some new rotors on the way, and i figure i would work on my brakes all at one time since im gonna be in there anyways. but what should i be changing out? just pads? or should i do shoes also? my cobra is at 65k miles and its been about 10k miles since the last brake service (but idk what "servicing" was done to it) i will also be painting my caliper also.
changing out the brakes..

If the pads only have 10K on them you shouldn't be through them. I'd take some 500 grit sandpaper and knock them back to a rough surface and then rebed them on the new rotors.
Shoes? We don't have drum brakes man.

Your 94 Camaro should be 4 wheel disc brakes too!
negative. drums on the back.
V6's are drum. Z28's should be disc IIRC.
FWIW:
It's a good idea to bleed the brake lines as well.

you know, im betting its been more than two years since his last brake fluid flush, so id say he should do a full flush instead.
