Post The Best Pictures of Your Mazda

You still looking to upgrade your stock suspension? I'll be selling my tokico illuminas and the only set of RS*R springs for the Protege in the USA this spring...

Best springs for the 3rd gen. :D

I beg to differ!!!

Ever had a set of Mazdaspeed B-Spec Springs??

Ever had a set of the RS*R springs? lol (jerkit)

I've seen many pro's dropped on the B-Specs. Never ridden in one, tho. Aesthetically speaking, RS*R's are superior, IMO. Performance wise, I am not barking up that tree. ;)

Even tho I am pretty sure the RS*R's have a stiffer spring rate than the B-specs, the B-specs were tuned for the protege suspension, and are supposed to be ideally setup for the suspension geometry of the Protege. B-Specs are linear, right?

Thrashed on daily.

Yep they are linear.
Spring rates
F: 247lb/in
R: 213lb/in

And yes they were designed specifically for the Protege suspension geometry and therefore are the best (non-coil-overs) for those of us that count aesthetics to be second. Only difference I see is that that RS*R's are a little lower and lower != better.

aren't there only like 7 sets of B-specs in the US?

I have heard 4 to 10. I have no idea where any of the other ones are besides my car.


And I haven't taken a picture of my car in ages due to school course load (major accounting classes). So, please forgive my lack on visual stimulation.

Indeed. As soon as I got home I cleaned it all off. Only 10 minutes.

Oh yea, forgot to mention I had just washed the car an hour before hand.

Test fitted my new lip this morning. I like how it looks black but it will be painted body color. It's only held on by 3 pieces of electrical tape in the picture. I am not installing it until the spring. The fitment is awesome for an ebay knockoff lip. I was expecting to do some modification but it does not need it.
