i'm interested in this topic as well. it will be my first track event.

from researching, many recommend going with carbotech xp10 pads for front and back. i'm not sure if sticking with OEM rear pads is recommended. for fluid, it's either ATE super blue or some racing oriented fluid from motul.

the stock tires will be fun to learn on, but they will begin to chunk (rubber pieces falling off) after so many laps. you may want to look at some dunlop star specs or other high performance summer tires.

edit: you may also want to look at the BRZ crash bolts to add some negative camber to the front. they're cheap and only cost about $8 per bolt. this will save your tires from wearing out prematurely and provide you with more grip in the corners.
