    Rack and Pinion Bad?

    Was informed our 2009 has a bad R&P (I'll try to check it later this week). Is this difficult to replace (tools, complexity), or just time consuming? Does anyone know if the Mazdaspeed3 is stronger, and a direct bolt in?

    Higher Rear Spring Rate?

    I have a 2009. Is there a stiffer rear spring than the stock one, that will not lower the car too? We tend to take it on long trips, so I'd like to beef it up a little. Plus, it tends to understeer, so this should help. Thanks.

    Help: Koni Yellows with Dust Covers?

    Developed a clunk noise from the rear after a few miles of driving on the Koni Yellows. Shop that did the work is saying everything seems good, so blaming it on the poor fitment of the OEM dust cover over the Koni body shock. With the amount of noise I think it's extremely unlikely. Anyone...

    I've only seen one post that I recall with people with Koni yellows mentioning there settings. Figure I'd reach out and see if there's now more and find out who set it at what. Right now I have just the rears and they're set to 1.5 turns from full firm. I'm doing the fronts next. The springs...

    Where can I find these? Prefer in-channel, if stickon is availble that would be preferred. Also prefer not buying through eBay.

    Anyone go larger on stock rims?

    I'm wondering if a 225/50R17 will fit in the stock wells without rubbing. I want to put more tire to the road. Yes I know they will be taller, but it's only about a 3% difference from stock (about 2.5mph diff at 80mph) so I'm not concerned about speedo error. The other option that might be...
