I believe you need to use stock size rotors, which are sufficient enough for even track use with a good rotor. Unless you went with a different bigger brake kit like a C5, C6 or other kit.

You don't need to bleed the brakes but its worth doing after a rotor and pad change so you can really feel the difference.
