I would go with the hatchback as well, but I would stay away from the automatic transmission. I have an 07 3 Hatch with the automatic transmission and have had the transmission warrantied once already and it still doesn't shift very well. Mine is an S Touring model and does not have the sunroof...

That is what I am hoping. I had originally ordered the koni fsd but they were back ordered 3+ months when I ordered them so I got the yellow instead. I originally intended on getting the racingbeat springs to go with the setup, but didn't have the money at the time. I may still get the springs...

The ride is very harsh, it seems to skip over the road alot. I feel it both in the front and back. I am beginning to wonder if my racingbeat swaybars are the culprit. I have adjusted both the front and the rear many times. I have tried many different combinations. I got sick of adjusting the...

From the research I have done you will need to get an atx fluid that is ATF-MV, this is different than Mercon-V. It is a mazda specific specification. Redline and Amsoil both make good synthetic transmission fluids that are atf-mv compatible.

Thanks for the input, the other question I have is whether or not anybody else has run the Koni Yellow with stock springs. I am very dissatisfied with the ride quality, especially the rear of the car. I would like to know if anybody else has had this issue. Also if they have changed springs what...

That really sucks, good luck with the 2012 focus when you get it.

I was reinstalling my stock rear shocks today and noticed that the koni yellow that I was taking off were about an inch longer than the stock ones. Has anybody noticed this? I am just curious since I have had all sorts of handling issues with my koni yellow on the rear of my car, well not so...

Do you have tire pressure sensors (tpms), one of those could be bad. When I put my snow tires/wheels on I do not have tpms and the there is a light that is turned on, on the dash, all winter until I put my stock wheels back on.

The K&N drop in filter does absolutely nothing. I had one in my car for over a year and felt no significant difference. I changed to a SRI and I could tell immediately. The corksport SRI isn't actually that loud either. If you do go with a SRI I would build yourself an intake box or at the very...

Ok, that is what I thought, but I wandered if anybody that has been in an accident and had theirs go off would have a pic of it, or maybe could tell me exactly where it comes out. I want as small of an opening as possible without causing a problem.

Can anyone tell me where the airbags are located in the front seats of a 2007 MZ3 Hatchback? I am trying to get custom seat covers made for my car and the upholstery shop will not make them unless they know where the airbags are so they can leave an opening for them. Pictures would be a great...

NA = Naturally Aspirated Basically any mod that is done to the car short of putting a turbo on the car would still be considered Naturally Aspirated. It is very hard to get much extra power out of the stock NA motor. A fully built NA motor is expensive and doesn't give you the gains a turbo...

Thanks guys, I will look into these when I change my swaybar back. Josh

Well, if my luck tells you anything, I am on my second transmission. First one came out around 25,000 miles and I am now at around 40,000 miles. The current transmission feels like crap and just plain shifts bad. I am thinking of taking it to a transmission shop to see what they can do. Maybe a...

No wonder I didn't understand it, my car is an automatic :( I guess I probably did something like that with my old car, 93 honda civic that was stick. I really really wish my car was stick, pity I didn't find this forum before I baught my car. There is no turning back now, it is one payment away...

bbrich57 thanks for the pics and info, I guess I just don't get what is meant by "heal and toe". Your floor mats are actually pretty clean, you should see my carpet after winter, all white and crappy due to road salt. I do clean it very nicely in spring though. I also have the mazda all season...

bbrich57 would you mind taking a closer up picture of your pedals and also noting which options you have. I don't exactly understand all of the options they have on the website. Thanks, Josh
