Brake pads - just do the defacto standard: Carbotech XP10s up front, 8s in the rear.

Don't screw with the rotors, and if you do, don't screw with drilled ones. Not needed.

Motul 600 will be fine for brake fluid, or AP racing's derivative.

Swap your clutch fluid while you're at it. I boiled that a couple times.

Stainless lines aren't needed either. But if you're worried about brand new lines stretching/bursting from age, go for it I guess.

Definitely get an oil cooler. 25R minimum. Stock one blows.

That's all you need to not die. Ignore anyone saying you don't need to do pads and fluid, unless you want to potentially die, or you have no intention of actually going fast and pushing limits.
