hi
I am doing a MazdaSpeed 3 brake transplant onto a miata 92 NA. Still in process...... need to make a bracket for it that is it...... what do you guys think? ............ pictures show - xxr 002 16x8 0 offset - mazdaspeed 3 front brake rotor 12.6" re drilling rotor from 5x114.3 to 4x100 to fit my miata - mazdaspeed 3 caliper Attachment 194412 Attachment 194413 |
I think that youre a mad man

I think you should upload the pics here so I can see them.
|
I think you did a lot of unnecessary work

Lol. Well you should document to show us how easy/hard this is. If this is a reasonable brake upgrade then why not. If you just spent alot of money on brakes and kept those gay wheels. I will kill you.

Down for more pics.
Would this ever, ever clear a 15" wheel? (same make and model) |
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?

k guise, im inspired, gonna fit veyron brakes under my K1s

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.) |

my corrado rotors on stock calipers have too much front bias...

The rotor size is not an issue IMO.
I would keep stock size discs if a 4 pot caliper coud be fit to it. |
That disc and caliper so great!
