Default Flyin' Miata Little Big Brake kit

Anyone seen this?

Would it be worth just shelling out the extra cash for the 11" 949 fronts?

This is on a mostly street driven/light auto-x car with hopes of some track days in the future.

If you plan on tracking your car, I'd go with a bigger setup than that. If all you do is street/light auto-x, that can be a good option to drop a few pounds.

I assume this is not a bad set-up if you're sub 150whp, don't track the car, or non-male.

Do you happen to know the weight difference between the old one-piece 11" corrado rotor TSE BBK and the new two-piece 11.75" kit you offer?

I'd love to see some numbers on this. Those Corrado rotors are supposed to be bestial.

Corrado rotor is 12.72 lbs.
11.75" hat and rotor is 9.8 lbs.
