    Default Some rookie questions on 2nd gen brake part numbers

    I'm trying to put together a list of part numbers so I can place an order through Mazda Motorsports. I'm new at reading the part catalog, so I want to make sure I get it right. Can someone tell me if I have the right ones for each of the parts listed? It's for a 90 GXL.

    Thx!

    Rear rotors - FB05-26-251A
    Rear calipers - FB05-26-610B ®, FB05-26-710B (L)
    Front rotors - FB05-33-251

    Does your car have 4-piston front calipers. I don't think it does. If it does then you have the right numbers. If not here are the correct numbers.

    Rear calipers - FB01-26-610B, FB01-26-710B
    Rear rotors - FC01-26-251
    Front rotors - correct number, they use the same part for both

    Call Mazdaspeed and talk to them when you order to make certain. They're VERY helpful.

    I don't think there were any series 5's (89-91) with the 4 lug set-up. That was SE model series 4 stuff.

    If ya got the 4-piston calipers then you got the right numbers. None of the Series 5 cars had 4 lugs that I'm aware of but there were alot of them that had the small brakes that came with the 4-lug cars. Have a friend with an S5 that has the small brakes and 5-lugs.

    The starting point for my ITS project was a 1989 GTU model. It came with the 5-lug hubs, but had small, single-puck brakes in front and solid rotors in the rear.
