Genuine Nissan pads are about the best.
Has been discussed before.

I've been advised to use Bendix 4wd pads or metal kings if you don't care about rotor wear.

Yer but you drive pretty hard and play in the mud.
12mths ago I reduced a half worn pad to nothing (actually it dissapared doing 100km/h (fully loaded patrol takes awhile to pull up on the hand brake). And that was all cos we drove through a heap of mud in and around Innaminka.
