Hi guys im new to owning a mazda. Just bought mine a couple days ago and I love the look of it but i kinda wanna drop it an inch or 2. Never done this before so any suggestions as to whether or not how or if i should do this? and about how much do you think it will cost me?

Thanks guys

I used Mazda Speed Springs on my Mazda 3, the Kit for the Mazda 6 is almost 1.5 inches

$200-$300 if you do it yourself, plus realignment.
$400-$600 if a professional does it for you, plus realignement.

Eibach Pro kit is probably the way to go for you just with what I have read here.

My preference on lowering springs would be the Tanabe GF210. I had them before going full COs & they are great. A lot of 6 owners use the Tanabes & are very pleased with it.

I have the mazdaspeed hatch springs myself and abolutely love the drop they gave me. Plus they are linear springs which means they give predictable handling on the track (a concern for me since I regularly autox my car).

This is how the car sits on the MS Hatch springs.
