Mazdaspeed parts ?

[parkerfe]

Has anyone tried the Mazdaspeed parts you get from the dealer ...if so, what did you think? There prices are competitive and you get full warranty from Mazda..

I admit it. I had a regular 3, and had a MS front license plate and rear license plate frame. now that I have a MS3 I feel no need to add that stuff. weird huh?

id like to get the mazdaspeed rear plate frame because i transferred tags and my plate has a yellow ring around it from my old frame on my civic. the prices seem high though just for a frame.

I was thinking more of performance enhancing parts such suspension, cold air intake, short shifter, exhaust, ect...?

IIRC, the Mazdaspeed CAI was discontinued.

LOL he says mazda parts and everyone talks about the license plate frames.. Gives you an idea how many people think Mazdaspeed parts are a joke.

In all reality, I've heard mostly good news from Mazdaspeed parts (except CAI for some). It just seems like there are better products out there. Mazda shouldn't void your warranty for a CBE or suspension mods, unless they somehow caused some other damage.

That seems to be just for the Mazda3, and not the mazdaspeed3.
The mazdaspeed CAI for the Mazdaspeed3 was discontinued.

fyi incase you didnt know the mazdaspeed parts sold at the dealer are on a 3 teir warranty scale adnd all parts must be installed by a mazdaspeed dealer with full documentation.

Mazdaspeed makes wheels, springs, coilovers, CBE, and more. Everything is a little on the pricey side though. I was really considering the springs until I saw that Eibach is coming out with their pro-kit. I think Mazdaspeed used to be called Racing Beat, until Mazda bought them out. I know my buddy's MP3 has Racing Beat parts all over it, and that was one of the first 'mazdaspeeds'

 

[onikaze]

actually Racing Beat is just an aftermarket parts company with no really ties to mazda.
