In the meantime I壇 like to squeeze one more track day in before the end of the year. Has anyone tried a ducting kit on the base brakes? I知 wondering if that might tide me over until I致e got the money for the AP kit.
You could try buying the Z1 kit and fitting that first. It works for both the Akebonos and the AP setup and there's a decent chance that it will work with stock. If it doesn't, you'll at least be able to run it in the future.
I don't remember seeing anyone running ducting on the base brakes so you might be the first.

The Q60 front bumper has a few openings you could try tapping into. I'd try for the side plastics where the fog lights are or the center vent on the lower end of the bumper and just having ducts there.
The tricky part about the Z1 kit is they don't have front bumper ducts with it. I ended up using the Nismo RC ducts and reducing those all the way down to 2.5" diameter, but a lot of people buy generic circular ducts instead.
