Jeez, and here I thought all Ford Aspires (or whatever they call Ford/Kia/Mazda 'bubble cars' outside of n. America) came from the factory with ventilated rotors! I do see though that you had to change calipers too in order to accommodate the extra thickness. Good for you and enjoy your new and better brakes.
I'll bet that installation of a bigger engine is going to be your next 'stop'!Comment

Omer has the Mazda 121. You can think of it as Mazda's version of the "second gen Festiva" or the "Aspire counterpart." Also known as the Bubble car.
Here is an old Top Gear revue:
Same car as the Autozam Revue!:
Karl'93GL "Prettystiva" ticking B3 and 5 speed, backup DD; full swaps in spring!
'91L "AquaMutt" my '91L; B6 swap/5 speed & Aspire brakes, DD/work car
'92L "Twinstiva" 5sp, salvage titled, waiting for repairs...
'93GL "Luxstiva," '94 B6 engine & ATX; needs overhauled
'89L "Muttstiva," now a storage bin, future trailer projectComment

In the first Youtube video, he mentions a four-speed auto on the 121s in the UK. Pity we got a three-speed. I notice that it's carbed, too, FWIW.90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods
09 Kia Rondo--a Festy on steroids!

Wow, that's very different from what we got in the US. I'm surprised they didn't send us the 4spd auto seeing as there's more highway driving in the US.Owner of:
1991 Red Festiva L, 5 speed (Swagger Wagon)
In progress:
BP+G25MR swap, Kia rio axles hopefully.Comment
