You can look into the Stillen brake cooling ducts. They run from the space next to the fangs directly back to the rotors in front.

And it probably goes without saying that you should upgrade the pads from stock.

You will also want to look into getting some brake cooling ducts.
I finally had a no brake fade day at the track with all of the above. I also used electric fans on my wheels in between the first three sessions, to force air inbetween. This left me with cold or nearly cold rotors by the next race.
I am using this set up less fans on the 22nd at the fastest track I've ever been to; Thunderhill.
