What is the Kangaroo Paw ventilation system?

The Kangaroo Paw is DBA's patented ventilation design. It uses a series of diamond and teardrop patterned pillars inside the rotor, which increases the surface area for cooling and improves heat dissipation compared to traditional straight vane designs.

What material is this rotor made from?

This rotor is cast from XG-150 high carbon alloyed iron. This specific metallurgy is chosen to better handle the increased stress and heat generated during braking.

Does this rotor come with hardware?

This product listing is for the brake rotor only. Installation hardware, such as lug nuts or brake pads, is typically sold separately.

Product Details

If you're working on your 1999-2002 Mazda Miata and need to replace the front brake rotors, this DBA 4000 Series HD rotor is a solid option. It's built with XG-150 high carbon alloyed iron, which is known for handling the extra stress and heat that comes with harder braking. This material helps the rotor stand up to repeated use without warping.

What really sets these rotors apart is DBA's patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation system. Instead of standard straight vanes, this design uses a pattern of diamond and teardrop pillars. This unique setup increases the surface area for cooling by up to 30% and improves overall cooling efficiency by 20% compared to traditional designs. This means your brakes can stay cooler and perform more consistently, especially during spirited driving or track use. The HD variant offers a smooth, OE-style finish, making it a popular choice for those who want the performance benefits without a visually altered look.
