Editing Brake pads (section)

==Brake Disc and Brake pads combination reference charts==
While researching I came across this chart that I want to share (Charts are in German but I don't think I need to explain what green/yellow/red mean)<br>
Here is latest news on this chart (translated to English with Google translate):

This is newest table from their site:<br>

'''extra information'''<br>
Extra info I found from our very own Dutch 'Arno' which I found nice to share:<br>
In case other people are looking to try out different pads on the Elise for road racing or perhaps auto-X.<br>
The Elise/Exige use REAR pads from a Nissan Skyline GTR at the front and the REAR pads from a Dodge Viper at the rear I simply looked them up..<br>
DODGE VIPER 2002-92 FRONT FMSI D592 REAR FMSI D491<br>
NISSAN SKYLINE GTR 1995-89 FRONT FMSI D639 REAR FMSI D174<br>
So the Elise becomes:<br>
ELISE FRONT FMSI D174/109 REAR FMSI D491<br>
The FMSI 'D109' might be possible at the front too. Slightly thicker pad (16.5mm vs. 14.1), but same backing plate shape.<br>
These numbers should make it possible to cross-reference with just about any brake pad manufacturer you want.<br>
