[Miata] Replacing original brakes on a '90

[MH]

Don't do the NAPA pad idea.  I'm sorry I did that on mine.  Pedal feel is
gross.  Initial grab and then you have to stomp to get them to bite.  I just
don't want to spring for another set of pads just to change the feel, but
they will get changed sooner rather than later.

Just avoid the "Value Priced" OEM pads.  For some reason, Mazda sells
cheaper versions of its OEM parts that are just that--cheap.

Go with the OEM pads. They last a very long time and do the job just fine.
