"replace brakes" may mean various things.
Most often it's just about replacing worn brake pads (maybe also fluid). Less often it's about replacing also disks (which usually last 2-4 sets of pads). Almost never it's about replacing calipers aswell (which seems the case of mentioned $2K+ price tag for brembo upgrade?).
Enthusiastic driving on mountainous roads is much closer to normal driving brake taxation wise then to track driving, as making it closer to later one needs to drive in license loosing manner, ignoring posted speed limits 1.5-2x times, ignoring own and others safety (as to push car to track level "much", one will drive without safety margin on car capabilities limits in environment of loads of uncontrolled variables and of increased consequences for errors (with no way to stop in time to avoid unexpected things like pedestrians/animals/children on road, or other car joining from blind junction, no engineered runoff zones, no marshals on increasing safety, less known/drilled down route vs repeated in many laps track, and so on.).
Others already noted, no need to match pads & rotors maker.
For slight OEM+, i'd get any street-ish hybrid pads (own choice for daily on stock brakes is Ferodo DS2500 pads) + better brake fluid (of higher boiling temps). Should cover most your uses (except actual track use). IF(!) rotors need to be replaced, really, any should do, there is little difference among cast iron rotors, many go by whichever cheapest locally (in US that often are Centric rotors). I suggest not getting slotted/drilled ones for reliability sake, but "blanks" like stock ones are and like others have suggested here aswell.
