Ah Missed that nugget.

People are going to have different wants and needs from brakes. But stock pads at the track with 300whp is not a good idea...
Carbotech XP8 or XP10 should work fine (or G-Loc R8 or R10 if they are equivalent). Pretty durable, easy on rotors, and streetable.
For fluid, I've never had any issues just running off-the-shelf DOT4 in my cars (250whp 240z, stock S2000, 500+ hp FD).
