Assuming they do them for the AP calipers then:-

- Carbotech XP8 (or XP10).

- Performance Friction PF-01.

I currently have these in my 330mm K-Sports calipers. A great all-round pad. Not necessarily the best in all 'disciplines', but scores very high in each one, IMO.

I've too these pads on mine front K-sport 356mm and rear K-sport 330mm they're all right pads,but lot better than Bluestuff NDX and not sure about the Orangestuff,not tried and i'm not very convinced...

Mine next pads which i'm looking for replace is Performance friction

I have blue stuff in my AP 4 pots, recommended by Ian@godspeed. Good cold bite only used on the road though so can't comment on track etc.

Alyn @ AS Performance is the man to speak to.

He ask what you use the car for and advise what pad is best suited.
