    Cooling ducts pointed towards the back center of the rotor (essentially at the hub) will be the most helpful. Hard to do on a front wheel drive car that isnt an all out race car (to where you can put an inlet hole or naca duct wherever you please ) Also remove the dust shields. Ive used motul race fluid extensively. No issues with it. As far as pads for our caliper I do not know who makes performance pads that fit - but pagid, hawk (blue), carbotech all are good race pads. Im sure for track days EBC are fine - I do not know of and have not seen anyone using ebc in actual racing (but im also not inspecting cars or asking people about brake pads at the race track lol ) Use plain cast iron rotors and not drilled or slotted or anything silly like that. Cooling. Cooling. Cooling.
