Mr2 rotors?
As far as I can tell the only difference between miatas front rotors and 99+ mr2 rotors is the overall depth. The overall depth is 1mm off according to autozones site. Napa shows that it's the same except the depth is 0.08" difference in height. Would the 1 mm or 0.08 affect anything if I use it on my miata?
I know it's a stupid question. Why not just run miata rotors? Push that aside and let me know if I could run this rotor without any issues. |

The issue is the bolt pattern. Did you verify the center bore, and rotor braking surface area width is the same.

Why don't you try it out, it seems close enough that it would work. Do it for science. |
So just because someone has to ask: why are you doing this? I'm just curious, since miata rotors are uber cheap
|
It's on the car and there doesn't seem to be any issues.

I'm running a mr2 hub. My miata rotors don't want to sit flush on it.

Yeah I did. Did you ?
He said 1999 MR2 NOT 1999 MRS Did you know that unless you lived in Japan ONLY, the 3rd gen MR2 is called just that? An MR2? I'm sure Napa carries rotors and lists parts for a 1999 SW20 MR2. Not to mention in his original post, he said "99+ MR2." Are you serious right now? |

Sorry, I used to work for a shop that had a 99 Gen2 from Japan as the shop car. But calm your tits, my point is still valid. Why get a LIKE brake rotor when you can get the rotor. |
Because apparently he's running mr2 hubs.
Which is weird and I'd love to see a picture of it. |

Got it. 99+ means "Gen2." Makes sense. :rofl: And your point is exactly what was explicitly asked in OP to ignore. So i'm with OP. I'm pretty sure you didn't read. |
