You'll have to go to the Mazda dealer to get a proper reading of all three sides of each rotor. You can get away with using a standard compression gauge and reading the three "blips" of the needle.

Yea, a regular comp tester will tell you enough. You can buy the tester cheaper than what Mazda will charge for their test.
