Are you getting the yellowstuff?

Just giving you guys the latest review of the redstuff

Noise: There are still some squeaking at the low speed but i just turn the music a little bit louder to fool myself

Dust: The dust has been reduced to the level of the greenstuff, so good news!

Performance: The performance is slightly higher than OEMs, but no fading at all under continous hard braking, very good.
It was able to brake from 130km/h to around 80km/h in 2 sec....i know its not impressive figures but pretty good for my stock calipers......and it was sit with 5 adults as well!

Its easy, i found no differences on soft stopping.
Its better to test out my car next time to do the justify yourself.
