The AMSoil series 600 brake fluid has a boiling point of 683.2 F so if that is the "temperature rating" I would say its good.

Should work excellent.
I run Motul 600 and Porterfield R4S. Had the Carbotechs but they dust a lot more than the Porterfield's do, and I couldn't tell much of a difference for street driving. Never had the Carbo's on a track, Porterfield performs well with SS lines. I've also got 1st gen stock rotors. That was all the upgrade I needed to be extremely competent on the street, so I never bothered to upgrade rotors/calipers. I did get some brake fade after a few laps of AutoX, but it really wasn't that bad. My car weighs considerably less than stock though.
If I was going to track the car more often bigger rotors are a necessity.
+1 on Porterfield R4S pads and Motul 600. I ran my 91 VR4 on a two day event with stock 1G calipers and stillen rotors with these pads and fluid and goodridge SS lines. You get pretty serious braking performance with this setup. I would start there before making the investment into the StopTech stuff.

I just bought a Stoptech 332mm BBK for my car. I have Brembo F40 calipers with adapters on the car right now. I never really got to test them but they're much beefier than 2nd gen calipers. I'd be willing to make you a deal.
PM me with what you are thinking and I will research the setup.
Damn, get that, lol
Also TurboSinceBirth, will I still be able to use my 17" stock rims?
Without fitting a set on I'm not too sure. I would think so but I also have aftermarket 18" Pro N1s with a 38mm offset. Right now the brakes are on 2nd gen rotors so I'm sure it would work. I don't know much about these brakes whether you can use bigger rotors with them or if brackets were made for the calipers way back as a group buy. I could never find much info about them.
What color are the calipers can you send me pics, and a price?
