    Changing the rear, and rear side reflectors to the clear lensed signals???

    Does anyone know where to find these things? I've seen them on here before (and yes I did a search) but can't seem to locate any info on where to buy them. Any help would be ridiculously great. I've wanted these damn things for eons and I just can't find them.

    Engine Knock??? And how do I fix?

    I've had my Speed 3 for about a year and a half now (it's an 07 CWP). I've never really had a problem with it except for the smoking turbo, which was replaced under warranty. However, lately when I've been laying my foot in it, it goes good but when it hits around 4-5000 RPM it sounds like...

    Has anyone cut the stock springs?

    Has anyone cut the stock springs to lower their car? I know it's ghetto, but I really hate the massive wheel gap. And I am poor as s*** right now and my money situation doesn't look any better for quite a while. I just want to lose the wheel gap. I know body roll will be more pronounced due...

    WTB---- Lowering springs...or Coilovers.

    I'm looking to buy as the title says. I would prefer coilovers but I am open to whatever. Let me know what you got. I am looking to lower the car around 1-1.5 inches or so and to stiffen up the ride. If I get some coilovers, problem solved. If I get springs. I will need to change the...

    How Do You Lock The Hatch When You Don't Have A Battery?

    This may be a stupid question. However, if there is no battery hooked up to the car, how do you lock the hatch? I have a couple grand worth of stereo stuff back there and I would absolutely love for it to be there tomorrow morning. And it's far too much of a PITA to remove it all. And for...

    And Yet Another Addition To The BS Turbo Club

    You can add my name to the ever growing list of smoking turbos. Why the hell doesn't Mazda do something about this epic fail of a snail? Any ways, I am visiting my dealership on Monday to check if it is really the turbo. Do I have to remove my TIP and Cobb intake before I go in?

    Just installed PG TIP

    Man was this thing a PITA to install. I had some major fitment issues. I also found out that my stock TIP wasn't even tightened down. I literally pulled out all the surrounding stuff, removed the nut, and the small hose and it just about FELL off. No effort at all was required. ******...

    Just installed Progress RSB

    Wow....Does this thing really make a difference. The body roll is almost not evident. Alot tighter in the corners. Who knew a swaybar could really make that much of a difference!!! I recommend to anybody who is thinking of doing this. Very easy install (other than some extremely tight end...

    Flip Key vs. Regular Key

    I have an 07 MS3 with the flip key. My problem is that I want the regular key like I had with my 09 Mazda 3 Sport. I went to my local dealership and they said it is impossible. But, I seem to remember somebody on here accomplishing this. I just got my Viper alarm installed and the 2 remotes...

    Just Installed Dogbone Rear Mount

    WOW!!!! That's all I can say...This motor mount rocks!! I noticed WAY more pickup in second and third gear. The vibrations will be something to get used to, but aren't that bad. All in all, a wicked investment. I've had this thing lying around for months. Mucho impressed

    Chrome accents for side markers?

    Does anybody have a set of chrome surround accents for the side markers? I had them on my 09 regular 3 and thought they looked pretty good. Wouldn't mind picking them up for my CWP MS3.

    Stock TMIC Cover on an Aftermarket TMIC

    Just curious if this would even fit on an ETS TMIC.. Not sure how much wider, if at all they are. I would like an aftermarket TMIC but would like to hide it as much as possible from the dealership. I don't want to ruin my warranty. Is this do-able???

    Question about rear Mazdaspeed 3 Emblem

    I was just wondering how tricky it is to remove the rear Mazdaspeed 3 emblem and the Mazda logo on the hatch? If I pull them off, are there any holes? Or, is adhesive used? Any help would be appreciated. I REALLY want to remove these but I don't want to fill any holes and paint. Thanks!!!
