    Hi. Anyone know who OEM manufacturer for Mazda brake discs is, specifically mx5 NC? Got crazy quote from main dealer, want to compare like with like. Google search didn't answer my query.
    Tbh dont even think they need changing, car only has 30k miles, and not raced! But anyway. Just in case!
    Thanks in advance

    There are likely multiple OEM manufacturers delivering to Mazda. It's not always the case either that you get the same product even when buying from the brand making them for Mazda. What usually happens is they make a production run just for Mazda to their standards and then they run their own version in parallel but often to different standards and materials. It's rare for a company to just rebox OEM stuff.
    It's also true though that as cars age the quality of the dealer parts also can change, Peugeot for example sell bosal exhausts on many cars over 10 years old that are not the same quality piece that would have come fitted new or been available when the car was younger, price of course stays high though.
