First mod on the Mazda 3 2.5T

Blitz front strut tower bar.

 

Very cool! Little by little, the mods will come. I have a lot on my 1st gen, but my 4th had the CS SRI, and my CX-50 has their SRI and airbox.

 

I have a Mazda 3 Turbo hatch. Its a fun car, just wish there was more aftermarket support for it.

Mevotech stabilizer endlinks part # MS76889.

 

Oh there is. Corksport just dropped their downpipe! But yeah more will be coming for this model. I loved my hatch. Only 2 months into owning I got hit by a dump truck and it was totaled.

Here is the downpipe info.

Yeah I saw that.

That'll be in the plans for later. I'll probably do the downpipe with the 80mm cbe all at once.

Man that sucks, sorry to hear about the car getting totaled. Did you get another turbo hatch?

 

No. I got a CX-30 which was easier to get in and out of. Plus I have a speed 3. I now have a CX-50 premium plus non turbo for daily use.

 

I had considered the cx30 also for the same reason.

I run alot of errands and get in and out of the car but one thing that swayed my decision was that ugly plastic cladding around the fenders.

If it werent for that, I'd have bought the cx30.

Any plans to mod the cx30?

USD is quite strong vs the japanese yen these days. Just saying... some of these parts fit the cx30 too don't ya know.

Blitz fstb was about $145 shipped, also got some autoexe chassis parts on the way.
