    Since this thread popped up again, here is my contribution.

    I provide a kit that interfaces any sort of Mazda Miata front brake setup to the Delorean. The limit is your wheel size and budget.
    Everything bolts on, no invasive modifications required. Angle drive still functions as it should.
    By simply using 1.8L stock miata brakes with this kit you can have a vented front brake setup with many choices of pads and very cheap and easy to source rotors.
    This setup uses modern integral wheel bearings/hubs so no need to press in and out bearings when you do a brake job, or ever.

    Ive sold seven of these kits. I have been running this setup on my car since 2017.

    If you go to a larger wheel you can fit larger rotors and multi piston calipers. Once again, anything at fits a 1990-2004 Miata will bolt up to this kit.

    Stock Miata Calipers (10" rotors, fit under stock wheels)



    Flying Miata LBBK (10" rotors, fit under stock wheels)



    Sport Miata Calipers (11" rotors, 15" or larger wheel req'd)



    Stoptech Big brakes (11" rotors, 15" or larger wheel req'd)



    Clint Wolff helped out bigtime with the development of this brake kit.

    Thanks Josh. Is the STOP-TECH kit is a Miata BBK?

    Yes, anything that bolts to a 1990-2005 Miata interfaces with the setup.
    This is what is included on my end. Not calipers or rotors.

    Josh

    Im interested in your kit with the Flying Miata LBBK.

    My question is this- since the Mongoose DeLorean runs custom 15" 3pc wheels, with no "hub" in the wheel- the center part of the wheel mounts flat against the rotor surface- the brake caliper CANNOT stick out past the rotor surface. Is this the case, or is the face of the caliper- where the Wilwood name is- inboard of that surface?

    My kit also includes hubs for the $400 price, but they are not pictured there unfortunately. I use hubs with timken bearings.

    If anyone is interested in a kit, just send me an email as indicated on my site ([email protected]). We can discuss further what your plans are so I can help you out to the best of my abilities. The brake kits seem to be building in popularity, more interest over the last month. Thank you for this.

    Mark w, I am having a hard time understanding your setup. If i recall correctly you are in SoCal? Clint Wolff has worked on your car? Perhaps I am wrong. Either way pictures of your setup would be idea. I would not want to sell anything that would not fit, but I am flexible as well.
