Grand Opening!! - Protege Garage

[Captain KRM P5]

Not only is it my 3000th post, but with this post I'd like to formally announce the launch of Protege Garage / Mazda3Online. We're still working out the finer bugs, but we're looking to carry a wide assortment of parts for the Protege, the new 3, the Rx8 and even the 6! Almost all products listed include shipping in the price.

The LCD screens listed previously here on the forums are also for sale at Protege Garage. The price listed here on the forum is cheaper than what we will be selling it for on the site. Also, in the very near future, we will be offering a 10% special on any and all items in stock for members of the Protege forums.

As aftermarket products (especially for the 3, where we have next to nothing) become available, we will be sure to add them. We're open to feedback, so feel free to contact us at any time. The site can be accessed at any of the three links below;

I know its a business and all, but your prices are quite high compared to some other places. Nopi sells the APC hood for approx $550 shipped vs your $700.

Totally agreed,

We are just a small operation currently, and don't have buying power like NOPI or other large distributors have. While we want to have low prices on all our items, sometimes its not possible. We aren't out to screw anyone, especially fellow Mazda owners. If you can get the hood from NOPI cheaper, thats cool, but right now, theres honestly nothing we can do about it.

any possible grand opening super sales? i'm in the market for some gauges.

Going off of that, we're working with our distributors daily to secure the best possible prices and will work to bring that price to everyone here on the forum.

we're aiming for this week; we'll be activating a 10% off special for forum members on any items in the store. as for gauges, we're looking to add other brands down the line as well as the Autometer that we carry now - such as VDO, Norskog, etc.

NOPI has the Unorthodox flywheel for $505.00 + shipping
Mazda3online $400 shipped to your door

remember all of the Mazda3online prices INCLUDE SHIPPING, Mazda3online has better prices on some things, a few are the same

Not true. Though most prices do. A few do not.

Anway congrats on the opening.

either way, I'm gonna buy from you guys. It's nice to find a company that will give great customer service and is focused on only one group of cars(mazdas), as opposed to places widely known like nopi. Nopi could give a s*** less about your problems just as long as you buy from them.

thanks very much. As for pricing P5girly, I think you will find that most of our prices compare if not beat alot of people out there. On certain items we will not have the buying power NOPI does.

speaking of a good price, we're doing a group buy on B&M shifters right now; http://www.msprotege.com/vbb300/showthread.php?t=50299. $95 shipped.

 

[Captain KRM P5]

Added Tokico struts today, both the HP non adjustables for 400 and Illumina 5 way adjustables for 550. We'll be adding things as they come down the pipeline and I'd be happy to hear what you guys would like to see carried on the site, so feel free to ask/suggest.
