If you are not a full track person, who is diligent about bleeding brakes all the time, I would not recommend extreme high temp racing brake fluid.

Race brake fluid goes dead pretty quickly as opposed to a high performance brake fluid, that is it will absorb water and it's boiling point temp will be lessoned. You will only notice the difference in standard brake fluid and racing brake fluid if you CAN boil the lesser brake fluid. If you can't boil the lesser grade brake fluid, then you are only spending more money on fluid and flushes/bleeds.

Now if you have an endless wallet/time/skill, yeah sure go for the RBF660, I can't knock it, it's what I use!

 

I also see you have an AP1, duct your brakes, it's so easy on the ap1 bumper! That will increase your rotor/pad life and keep breaking temps down which will reduce the need for the racing brake fluid.

 

As others said, if the car isn't relatively young (late model ap2 w/ low miles), I'd make sure to get SS lines. They are known to flat out fail over time at the joints if they get overheated, which means no brakes at all. I'd say make sure you get SS lines/fluid, and then some sort of track pad like Hawk HP+ or Project Mu.

 

At the last trackday, I knew I was getting low, but pushed it anyway and my caliper piston permanently welded its self to the backing plate.

Ha, I've done the same thing. Won't do that again!

To the original poster, this is the perfect time to really check your brake system (lines, calipers, rotors, fluid, pads) and make them function perfect and flawless. I personally tracked my car 4 times with all OEM except fluid and had no issues but I was and still am slow.

 

another for stoptech pads for OEM caliper.
had those. IMO they're worse than OEM.
OK for the street.
noway for the track.
i've used EBC Yellow for a while. they're doing good under load. but they crack rotors eventually. although this is not dissimilar from other tough pads...

 

So, the stoptech pads are not that great of a pad? Would I be better off going with OEM pads, centric premium blanks, and ATE200 brake fluid? Like I said I will only be doing one track day the rest of this year, and the remainder of my driving will be on the street.

 

How much track experience do you have? No offense intended, but it sounds like you're pretty new. If that's the case, I'd say you'll be okay with OEM pads. The rotors and fluid should be okay as you progress to a novice, but you'll likely outgrow the fluid by the time you need to change it again. For next year you should plan how many track days you're going to do and how fast you expect to progress and start thinking about a dedicated track pad for track days, then OEM for street.

 

Most people new to tracking seem fine with stock pads for the first 3-4 track days.
