I’ll say I’ve got my fist track day coming up at the end of the month. IS300 pads ordered and I’ll be bumming some quality endless fluid off a buddy. Otherwise all stock for the braking setup.
I haven’t experienced any issues with the stock brake setup, but did switch over to Motul 600 fluid, Advanced auto gold pads.
I think ATE Type 200 is just fine or at least I never had an issue running with race pads and even when the rubber dust booth at the piston was on fire I still did not have any boiling.
Try some ATE super blue fluid and EBC greenstuff pads.
I have been running Super Blue in mine since last fall. Just recently I have developed a squeaky clutch pedal. I thought is was just because the car was getting older.
