red stuff are supposed to be mince.
Never used red ones, but heard bad reports about them.
Love the Mintex 1155's on the corsa, and i'm trying Ferodo DS3000's on the skyline.
The red stuff pads also maybe a bit too extreme for only road use. They will need to be quite hot to work well!!!!

asked about them to see if they would need to heat up alot, apparently they have just had a revamp and the green ones are softer, redones are harder and now have race spec pads aswell
