I also rock the Motul 600 fluid, but I've heard that if you drive hard enough, even that won't cut it. It worked for me on my track day with no drama.

You can look into the Stillen brake cooling ducts. They run from the space next to the fangs directly back to the rotors in front.

And it probably goes without saying that you should upgrade the pads from stock.

For track use you want Castrol SRF. It's not cheap, but then you get what you pay for.



You will also want to look into getting some brake cooling ducts.
