Hawk HPS Front Brake Pads - NA8/NB Miata (94-05 w. Non-Sport Brakes)

The Hawk HB149F.505 is a front brake pad set in Hawk's HPS compound for the 1994-1997 Mazda Miata (NA, 1.8L) and 1999-2005 Mazda Miata (NB) with the standard front brakes. HPS (High Performance Street) is Hawk's street pad, with more friction than stock pads for daily and spirited street driving. It fits the factory front calipers without modification.

• Hawk HPS (High Performance Street) compound (code F in the part number): a street pad with a higher coefficient of friction than stock brake pads; Hawk rates it excellent for spirited driving
• Hawk states 20-40% more stopping power and higher resistance to brake fade than most standard replacement pads, for better pedal feel and more consistent performance
• Hawk temperature ratings: 100-500°F optimal range, 100-700°F operating range
• Smooth braking feel and consistent brake release; Hawk says HPS is gentle on rotors, gives extended pad life and generates less dust than OE. For iron rotors only; not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors
• Pad thickness 0.505 in (12.8 mm): the number after the dot in Hawk part numbers is the pad thickness in inches (HB149F.505)
• Hawk street bed-in: 6-10 moderate stops from 30-35 mph, then 2-3 harder stops from 40-45 mph without dragging the brakes, then let the brakes cool for 15 minutes

Fitment: Front axle. 1994-1997 Mazda Miata (NA, 1.8L), 1999-2000 Mazda Miata (NB) and 2001-2005 Mazda Miata (NB) without the Sport Suspension package. Not for 1990-1993 (1.6L) cars, 2001-2005 cars with the Sport Suspension package and its larger front brakes, or the 2004-2005 Mazdaspeed; Hawk lists a different pad shape (HB431) for 2001-2005 Sport Suspension cars.
