Default Fluid change and parts replacement intervals for tuned cars

My car just hit 60k and I'm getting the VAP ECU and Transmission tune along with the pulley done next week. I'm also changing all the fluids, replacing the plugs, brake pads/rotors/fluid, drive/supercharger belts, upgrading the water pump, etc. I'm basically hitting reset on everything (or as much as I can) and starting from "0". This is a daily driver and I occasionally push it.... it's far from being pushed that hard.

I'm curious as to how often are you guys changing the following fluids on your tuned cars? Please include how hard you're driving your car on average and frequency (daily driver, weekend, track only).

1) Engine Oil
2) Transmission
3) Front Differential
4) Rear Differential
5) Brake Fluid
6) Plugs
7) Drive/Supercharger belts

Thank you.

I just reviewed the supercharger oil change post, thanks for the write up... looks like a PITA.

I just noticed it's the v6s you have , in that case it is very easy to do the supercharged oil change on that model , less than a hour tops , I done a write up on how to , the rock had done a write up on the 5litre ftype engine , don't get confused
