Greenstuff pads generally recommended for cars up to 200 bhp.

Redstuff pads generally recommended for overs over 200 bhp.

i would say it all depends on the type of driving your going to do red pads take longer to heat up so they are good for the track but might take too long To heat up for every day plodding around, green pads will heat up quicker but may fad if your doing the track day thing, this is what iv been told and might be total s**t, im sure there is a thread about this already some where

this was the idea of the post as i have heard both sides that you have both mentioned here, i went to price greenstuff but was told they would only sell me the redstuff for bveing over the 200bhp mark but i domnt think im really going to driving it that hard.

- also apolagise for starting a thread that exsixst somewhere but have seen it.

I've been using Green for the past few years and they work well.

i generally find if you don't need redstuff, then you don't need to waste ur money on greenstuff.. just buy motor factor pads for 1/5th of the price :)
