Here is what I have done thus far:

Lowered w/ Eibach springs
18's wheels "Konigs"
A&M cold air
Greddy catback exhaust

RE: Pics of my Mazda 3, 18;s, lowered, exhaust

Fellas, I'm new to this forum, I've been a Honda Accord guy for years (don't shoot me yet!). I did own an RX7 a number of years back, but after I got it all hooked up, some lowlife ripped it off and all they found was the body. These Mazda 3's just looked too sweet not to have one for myself. So this month, I bought a 2006 Velocity Red, Mazda 3 hatchback, pretty freakin happy with its perfomance. I'm looking at lowering it with Eibachs, can't decide which to put on the Pro-Kit or Sportline. Your ride sits sweet, which Eibachs did you use, Pro or Sport? If Sport, have you had any probs with rubbing on fender wells? and also how's the ride? I just got off the phone with Eibach and he gave me all the specs, but I think you really gotta ask the people that buy the product how it works, not some sales/tech guy. Also anybody got the skinny on when AEM will get a CARB exempt on the CAI's for this model? Thanks for any info you can give.

what year is that. I'm waiting for my '06 to be shipped and don't know how off the color will be to the older models. The dealer said the color is more red then orange in the copper red


Thanks!

wow...it looks great!

Did you notice a big power increase with the A&M cold air intake?

RE: Pics of my Mazda 3, 18;s, lowered, exhaust
 

with the AEM cold air intake you feel a little bit extra power starting around 4500 or 5000 rpms, no BIG gains. the best part about it though is the instantaneous throttle response and the grunt the engine now makes. sounds a lot meaner.

Was it easy to install, any major mods required? How long did it take? How much did it cost?

I'm curious.

RE: Pics of my Mazda 3, 18;s, lowered, exhaust
 

Wow nice rims, where did you get them? [:-] I wish I could get a set for my 03 protege.

RE: Pics of my Mazda 3, 18;s, lowered, exhaust
 

Hey do you have a pic of your Greddy exhaust? Which exhaust system did you go with? Evo2? And where did you purchase it from? Im about to buy another Mazda3 and would like to have the Evo2 but never seen it on a 3.
