JDM's have a 60 litre tank - so a true 1/4 is 15 litres.
Just regard 1/4 on the gauge as 'empty' - simple!
It means you'll never use that last 1/4 of a tank's worth (although it'll always be replaced by new fuel, as the pick-up is obviously at the bottom). But if you do let it go below that level, then you could end up with a melted engine when hooning round corners (even more at risk when doing track work!)...

Obvious answer to that is don't run a quart tank on track days.. Alternatively you could go for swirl pot setup, wouldn't cost that much, just need another pump, a swirl pot and some time etc..
I remember reading another post about this some time ago, there was a mod for it or a different type of STI pump if i remember. Do a search you may come up with something.
