I've never had an issue, with DOT 4 even with prolonged track use.
Are you sure you need it? plus it absorbs water at a quicker rate so needs to be changed more frequently not good for the pocket.

It is not about the DOT rating as this does not directly influence the performance or heat resistance. DOT 4 fluid can perform better than 5.1. You have to look at the actual specs of each fluid.
I always use Motul RBF600 in mine and it is the choice of many in the know.
Take a look at the specs:
AZTEC PERFORMANCE ONLINE STORE - WHOLESALE PRICES DIRECT TO THE PUBLIC - Brakes :: Subaru Impreza :: Performance Friction Discs & Pads :: Motul RBF600 High Temperature Brake Fluid (500ml Bottle)

1 litre is usually enough (2x 500ml bottles).
