    Mazda5 BC Racing BR Type Coilovers - Review and Install

    You're very very welcome! I miss this car a lot. Except the never-functioning AC. My BCs made it onto the 3 hatch of one of my Boy Scouts, where they lived a year or two slammed down the ground before perishing in a flaming wreck... If I had unlimited garage space I'd have another 5 but...

    Need Stiffer Rear Coils

    I don't think it specified... but I assume that's through the mounting point since all models have them. The roof is kinda flexy, I definitely wouldn't put anything significant on it without the rack. Ha nice! I took mine to Vorshlag, they're local. Sad part is that I can't find the data for...

    Mazda5 BC Racing BR Type Coilovers - Review and Install

    Oh noooooes came back here to check something and saw all the pics were gone. Is anyone still using this? Can probably upload somewhere (preferably here) to get everything working again, but it'll take some time...

    Poll What's the main reason you became a Mazdas247 Member?

    I always join the most active forums for whatever cars I own or am looking to own... and in this case it was because there seemed to be no active community for the Mazda 5. Minivan owners usually aren't car enthusiasts. Sadly, it seems lately that almost all of the MZ5 activity has been in...

    SOLD! 2009 Mazda5 Sport MANUAL $1500

    Hey everyone, my 5 just drove away from my house for the last time. Thanks for all the interest! Sadly, it didn't go to anyone in the Facebook group or on here on the forum. What that means though- will soon post up two stereo dash kits (one still new), side skirts, BC coilovers, Mazdaspeed3...

    SOLD! 2009 Mazda5 Sport MANUAL $1500

    Thanks! Updated the post a little- and it IS pending, but may still fall through if the buyer doesn't take it on Tuesday (June 2). Blower fan no longer has leaves in it, spins fine. Price updated to $1500, and if you want it (and the guy on Tuesday doesn't take it), I'll even fly you in to buy...

    What have you done to your Mazda5 today?

    But is the compressed height the same as stock? If the free height is the same but the springs are higher rate, then you may be super tall in the rear at rest vs stock.

    I can help with plane tickets, just sayin'. :) Thanks! Every car I own is a manual... so specifically hunted this one down because we needed more space for a few years.

    Need Stiffer Rear Coils

    I remember my owner's manual saying 150lb for the roof itself regardless of rack, that was for a 2009.

    2014 Mazda 5 Exhaust Manifold Removal

    Loosen engine mounts and use a ratchet strap or a jack to move the engine forward a bit? I think that's how I did my 2009... didn't ever work on a 2012+ though, so it may or may not be the same. Studs can stay in.

    Rear upper control arm replacement

    The service manual wants you to drop the rear subframe. Easier to cut off that exhaust hanger. :)

    [Mazda5 2010+] About aftermarket stereo

    Since your post has gone unanswered... not sure it'll help, but hopefully the 2G are wired similar to the 1G. When I replaced the stereo in my 2009, I only lost the display portion that showed radio information. Climate control, cruise, range- all of that was separate from the stereo function. I...
