So generally speaking - going from 2NH to the blues... I wouldn't be opposed to trying it if someone is giving me 2500.00 for the swap if you are leaning towards going to a BBK in the future. Just know that you might be in that gap between the fade resistance levels of the two where the 2NH still perform adequately but the blues might fade. Might make the move to a BBK need to happen sooner but now have some money to go towards that upgrade.
Same as with any setup look out for fade. If your setup starts to fade then might be time to start looking into an upgrade of one type or another. If you haven't had any issues then sounds like you might be in a good place right now. A good BBK has other benefits (less mass, quicker pad changes, etc) but if you are not needing the extra fade resistance might not be worth the money for you yet.
Are you considering adding cooling to try to extend pad life?

Yes - seeing 270deg on the front 240deg on the rear. Brakes, pads, fluid etc all need to be of a similar high standard to get the most out of them.
Also to the bloke who said this car isnt rewarding on track you are so wrong. I also have an exige s3 (350) which is a brilliant track tool but i tend to go in the bmw - 15 days this year so far with 2 more booked. I have made some mods to it now but even stock it was a great laugh, quick and demanded good car control to get the most out of it.
