I think the bigger problem w/ OEM brakes is pad life sucks, as in you'll probably get a couple weekends out of a set. That gets expensive if you track frequently. Cracking rotors is just the icing on the cake.

get the ducts before any caliper change. you only need a bbk when you start getting fast, really fast. the ducts with the right fluids and pads youll be good to go!

Are you saying I'm not fast?! Haha jk, thanks man! Ducts for sure. I plan on doing a crap load of track events this year, and heavy on the brakes.

I did both, and have had no issue with rotor cracking since. The pads last about 30% longer and the pedal feel is much better with the accord calipers.
