Brake Fluid and Pads for Stock Brakes

All,

I've got to change my fluid. I'd like to replace with something better than stock as I plan to hit a couple track days in the fall. Nothing crazy just want to enjoy my track time more than with a fully stock setup. Is endless fluid GTG?

Also, any recommendation for good pads that will have better bite once warm and not fade as bad as factory pads? Hoping to keep the noise down but if that's impossible I can swap the pads before the track days.

Thanks!

Any high temp dot4 fluid will be fine.

You want to have a set of dedicated track pads, so just swap them out. Performance Friction 08 pads are endurance pads that don't fade and last a long time.

On stock brakes, I recommend Castrol SRF and track pads. At least something like Motul RBF600.
