Why upgrade
These brackets mount Wilwood Forged Dynalite 120-13839 calipers over 280mm front rotors on the NA and NB MX-5. That’s up from the factory 235mm rotors on the NA and 255mm on the NB. They’re machined from T6-6061 billet aluminium, hard anodised, and fitted with stainless steel Heli-Coils so the threads hold up over time.
Will it fit my car?
Built for the Mazda MX-5 NA and NB. You’ll also need:
- HFM.Parts 280mm two-piece front rotors
- A pair of Wilwood Forged Dynalite 120-13839 calipers and pads to suit
- 1/8″ NPT to M10 x 1.0mm caliper fittings to connect the brake lines to the Wilwood inlets
The factory backing plate comes off and isn’t refitted. Want everything in one go? Grab the 280mm front brake kit for MX-5 NA and NB.

Fitting
Remove the hub and the three 12mm bolts holding the backing plate, then refit the hub and torque the hub nut to 167–216Nm (123–159 ft-lb). Fit the bracket with the logo facing the inside of the car and torque the bolts to 60Nm (45 ft-lb). Mount the caliper with the spring washer first, then the flat washer, and torque to 60Nm (45 ft-lb). Fit the inlet fittings to the calipers with Loctite 262 or equivalent, bleed the brakes and check nothing rubs. Full steps are in the MXWIL280 install guide.
We recommend installation by a licensed mechanic.

Our Story
We weren't always HFM.Parts; we were Holford Motors. Our brand's identity was forged not in an office, but on the local circuits in the high-stress world of competitive drifting. Our ultimate testbed was our Nissan S14 Drift car, driven by champion Luke Fink. Pushing that car to its limits exposed a crucial truth: achieving genuine, repeatable performance meant relying on components that simply weren't available affordably on the market.
The HFM.Parts brand was born
We made the commitment to design and manufacture the uncompromising, high-quality performance parts that we, as competitive racers, demanded ourselves. Every component you see is a solution conceived, tested, and proven by us. When you choose HFM.Parts, you are investing in components engineered by racers, for racers, ensuring your vehicle delivers its maximum performance potential.
