    Installed Headlight LED DRLs

    I thought all cx-5's were xenon. I have a sport manual and it even says xenon on the window sticker. So is there a different drl bulb for xenon and non xenon models? The only thing xenon is the low beams right?

    Throttle Response

    If its still really low in the miles then it may just need more break in time. I got mine with 1 mile on it and the throttle felt lazy but now its starting to "loosen" up and respond faster. Are you manual or auto.

    I waited about 5 weeks for black to come in. Had to order it because of the manual. Totally worth it though. Its a short time to wait to get what you want when compared to how long you'll have the vehicle.

    My Sport manual has arrived. I officially have a fleet of mazda's. What a great little car. I just wish i had something to install on it. Intake, amp and sub, lowering springs. Something. Still got the beast though. Gotta give it some spotlight.

    Finally a lowered spring setup for 2wd CX-5!

    Yes while the car is sitting still there's a mere 75lbs. (which, btw, in the world of suspension geometry is a lot) What about while cornering? Or absorbing bumps and dips in the road? Or most importantly, while braking? The forces acting on the suspension are far greater in these instance's...

    CX-5 Lowering Springs

    Those springs are designed for the heavier AWD model. In my opinion, your target customer buys the sport, fwd, with a manual transmission. They are more likely the "enthusiast" and are more likely to buy lowering springs than the average fellow. Because they're not intended for the lighter FWD...

    Finally a lowered spring setup for 2wd CX-5!

    I'm not personally subscribing to any of the above about Those H&R springs working for both models. There's about a 300lb difference between models and in no way would those two models come from the factory with the same spring rates. One would have to design spring rates for each model from the...

    Finally a lowered spring setup for 2wd CX-5!

    I think what it's saying there is that ride comfort decreases with the lowering of a car for sporting intentions. This is a fact. I've lowered the last 3 cars i've owned and ride quality took a hit each time. But stance and handling increased. Its a trade off thats for sure. I'm glad to see...

    Cool. I've added the foglights to my sport, manual i'm still awaiting delivery of. I'm more interested in suspension bits. Lowering springs and something to adjust camber with. But a catback exhaust would be cool too. I hope corksport really embraces the cx-5 sport. There's no support for it...

    Wheel Spacers

    Wheel Spacers

    A 5mm spacer is a simple and effective way to help the stance of any vehicle. Just make sure there's plenty of stud left to tighten the lug onto.

    Introducing the 2013 Mazda CX-5

    the Diesel will be a twin turbo. 173hp and 310 lb ft, iirc. if they bring that with a 6 spd and awd that would be awesome. there would really be no need to look elsewhere.

    Introducing the 2013 Mazda CX-5

    I'd be down for that diesel. 310 lbs-ft of torque in a 3300lb CUV sounds damn good. Especially if its equipped with a manny.
