Smile MAZDA 6/atenza

Could someone advice me what other things that I could modify to my car.
I've done my airfilter, strut brace front and back and volt stabilizer.

Thanks

I have a 2006 Sport Wagon. You could look at my car: https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/mem...songs-2316.jpg
Some suggestions: Paint your brake calipers, Evil M front & Rear (READ: https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/maz...-2006-a-29866/ ), the stock headlights are not very good so put in some HID (READ: https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/maz...h1-bulb-29741/ ),
Carbon Fiber Decals in interior ( Carbon Fiber Film | Dedicated To Selling 3M Carbon Fiber DI-NOC Vinyl ), put some chrome strips at front, is your front suspension sitting higher than your back then lower it.

Just to clarify- your car is not an 'Atenza'. Not only because it's simply not called that in North America, but because the car in Japan that is called an 'Atenza' is not even the same chassis as yours unless you have a Speed6. The North American 6 is different from that sold in Europe and Asia. At least until the new generation gets here.

Karlt10, what makes you think he is in America? & what do you think his chassis number is?

I own a Mazda Atenza sports wagon (23S) Its a Japanese import.

I will make some of those upgrades depending on my budget. I've put lowering springs, pivot mega raizin volt stabilizer, Autoexe rear brace, Tanabe front strut brace, simota airfilter.

Hey John, welcome to this Mazda forum. My wagon has factory 17" wheels & standard suspension, I need a normal ride height to access gravel roads. I've spent heaps on a audio system. Fitted a K&N pod filter with a carbon fibre cold air intake. Also I've bought, but not yet fitted a new exhaust system.
