I'd go for the Yellows as a minimum fella.
Depending on your mods you will probably be better off with the Bluestuff pads if your driving your car hard most of the time.

I have never been impressed with ebc stuff I have had on other cars and discs are overpriced in my opinion new bluestuff gets a good review, I would get some Kevlar pads from Godspeed over red or yellow but if you want to spend a bit more go for the blues

I've had red stuff on my previous car with grooved discs & they were crap. They only worked ok when the car was thrashed around & the brake pedal was constantly being used into corners. Will never get them again.

No excuses for misinformation in that case.
Name?We don't just talk about pads or hear about them, we try them first hand ourselves. EBC Bluestuff NDX work great from cold (unlike many track pads) and just get better with heat.
They are fitted to our own car (daily driver + used on track) and have been since the NDX pads were first released.

so you don't trust the people who make the product to know best.
sounds like you talking rubbish to me.
its a track/racing pad for a reason. they loose heat and will not function to there optimum. unless you hooning around. (not possible on the road)

I'd still like to try them for myself as they get lots of praise on this forum.

Just for your information EBC say "The biggest advantage of EBC Bluestuff NDX is their bite from cold and progressive brake feel and the ability to bring a car to a complete stop. This has led to the ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval of R90 which is now completed and certificates are being obtained (during July 2011)."
