I have for sale a BNIB set of the Brofab front hubs for an NA or NB. You all know of the bearing/hub weaknesses in these cars, when used hard on the track (not normally an issue for street dríven cars). Bought a while ago, these were never installed, and would be wasted if I did get around to it now, as my car is probably not going to see much serious track work now.
These hubs use an E30 BMW front wheel bearing, built to BMW standards for a much heavier car. Not only is the bearing itself more durable than the Mazda item, the hub thickness and design is much beefier and more robust also. The spectre of bearing failure and hub cracking/breaking are consigned to the past. Should a bearing fail, replacement is straightforward, but does involve a minor piece of lathe work (probably could be done with an angle grinder or hacksaw (seriously!), but a lathe would do a nicer job. The reason is they come with an extended nose which needs to be trimmed for the new application.
These hubs come with the higher grade Bimmerworld screw-in extended stud, so they can be shifted to a new hub if a bearing does go.
They also come with Mazda ABS rings.

At today's exchange rates, replacement cost would be well over $1k today. These can be yours for $700, plus postage if needed.
PMs only please.
