For refrence, found this from some metal workers.

Heat tinting of titanium:
pale gold straw- 385C : 725F
purple- 412C : 774F
deep blue- 440C : 824F
red purple- 565C : 1049F
brown gray- 648C : 1198F
green blue-925C : 1697F

Yeah you needs some cooling, also make sure any rubber parts aren't too damaged like the caliper dust boots.

There is a couple of track rats who never replace their boots because then they would have to change them after each event. If you DD the Z too. Then I would replace them.

Once a year for myself, they are probably gone before that but they are not super critical. I also don't go too often to the track, a few times a year.
