welcome to the board.

if i am not mistaken, i think there is a general shortage of the rear brake calipers for the 5 lug cars - so you may be in for a long haul in finding one. i would say try Mazda themselves, and for that i would say contact Ray Crowe. he is a member of our community and i have not heard anyone speak ill of any dealings with him thus far. if he can't get it, then you're probably going to have look on the used market.

another option you have though is buying a rebuild kit. i think the chain parts store can get them, if not, try Rock Auto.

hope this helps.
