Default Avoid the super blue; has destroyed many seals on our brake components...

...which AP Racing brake fluid would you be referring to? I think there are different ones -- like 550, 600, 5.1.

better brake fluid (hence this post)
ECS OEM sized slotted/crossdrilled rotors (mostly for looks)

Old trick. Cheap, but there is better for not much more.

Default bah...

Motul RBF all the way. Boiled the $#!7 out of super blue at Seca, couldn't touch the Motul. Also like what was said earlier Super Blue has issue with eating seals. Dunno why but stay away from it.
