Brake Pads: Absolutely switch to a Track Pad, Track pad for the Track, Street pad for the Street.
Brake Fluid: Yes, switch to a quality fluid, Endless, Project Mu, or Brembo.
Hoses: Standard are fine, no need to upgrade.
Oil: I've been tracking on 0W20 with a JR Oil Cooler for a year now. It's been fine and my oil temps have been under 250. Run 5W30 if you see your oil temps too high with oi l cooler or you choose not to run an oil cooler.
Oil Cooler: Great investment if you plan to keep tracking.
Tires: RE71R are very sticky but fall off after a few laps, very good AutoX tire, not so much HPDE as you will not learn anything because your tires are more grippy than anything else on the track most likely. I would get the Firehawks, they're good as learning tires if you get such a discount. I would not go wider than 225/45 on the stock wheels.
Wheels: Stock Performance Pack wheels are fine. If you want to get a second set of wheels, I don't believe most 17x7 clear the Brembos. I would go with 17x8 or 17x9 on a 225/45 or a 245/40 respectively. There is a lot of data already on which wheels fit the BBK so do some research. 225/45 would be good if you want to upgrade wheels later.
Suspension: Camber Bolts are pretty cheap, $20 and install in 15 min. I got -2 degrees with stock 2017 (Non-Performance Pack) suspension. I used SPC in the bottom hole and the OEM bottom hole bolt in the top hole.
Safety: You do not need a fire extinguisher, it's good for piece of mind but not necessary as most tracks have safety crew on standby with fire extinguishers. I would invest the money in a quality helmet if you do not have one already.
