Doubt it, practically looks like he photoshopped them into his 16" wheels. Pictures of the setup without the wheel? And I can a Ferrari F50 caliper and disc inside a wheel, the bracket is always the hard part, what are your plans? Any pictures of the caliper next to the miata hub?

The MS3 has a really nice caliper, and the rotor is plenty big. I wouldn't want a rotor that heavy on my Miata.
I believe the MS3 caliper has a 57mm piston (going from memory here, not looking it up). That's roughly equivalent to a 38-42mm four-piston caliper. Put it on a 320mm rotor with a 60mm tall pad, and you get 77% more torque at the wheels for every pound on the brake pedal. Might as well just cap the rear lines and send both m/c outputs to the front. (Before actually does that, they better look up sarcasm on Wikipedia.)
