2005 mazda3 sp23
Just wanted 2 know if anybody out there knows about how long it takes aftermarket companies 2 catch up with the new lines?? I have a '05 SP23 and havent seen hardly anything out there. I realize its brand new, but what kinda wait time are we looking at?? There isnt even a K&N available. (argh)

The search button is really your only friend now.

Is that really an appropriate response? Yes...the search feature will net you many answers but providing some on the spot HELPS A LOT TOO!
 
also check websites such as

www.draxas.com

www.corksport.com

www.ebay.com

www.umnitza.com (cause that carbon fiber intake is so sweet and their lighting options are great)

www.srmotorsports.com

www.protegegarage.com

there is a lot out there if you know where to look, just don't expect to pay the same price as you would for a civic or a focus, but the aftermarket is catching up, there are also brakes options and wheels as well, good luck and do some searching through the different sub forums in the 3 section

(oh yeah can't forget www.hiboost.com for all your turbo needs!!!)
 
aftermarket parts for the mazda3s will work on the sp23. the sp23 is basically a dressed up version of the 3s.

I'm not able 2 get your links 2 work. I did try searching the K&N website a few weeks ago... but found nothing.

Regardless of that, the parts do exist. The last digits of the links (everything after the "=" sign) are the part numbers.
 
it looks like K&N only has a stock replacement filter... not a cold air or short ram?? I realize 3 parts will fit hte sp.... i may have been searching the wrong places cause all i seem to ever find is the mazda dealership parts. But thanks for the links and fast replies!!

eh? K&N makes a Typhoon system for the mazda3 and it is listed on my site
 
Methinks somebody isn't paying attention... (eyeballs)
 
I can't get any of these links to work?? Anybody have any idears?? I click them and they load a page that says website not found.

Since I can't get them 2 load, I did check K&N's website again and they don't show a typhoon for the '05 3.... just the replacement filter for stock.

Check for the '04 3. It's the same car, they might not have updated their catalog.

our site is temporarily down. if you want to order some parts for your 3, please give me a call at 847 736 1635 or at the number shown below in my sig.

Hmmmm... well that helps a lot. I just assumed since they didnt list anything other than the replacement filter for '05, that the '04 and '05 models were not interchangeable. This clears things up a lot.
