Hello out there!

Im a proud new owner of a 08 Mazda3 sport Hatchback (Red). Absolutely love the car! I traded in my 04 infiniti g35 sedan for it. I out grew my Infiniti and with gas prices i went back down to 4 bangers. Im already shopping for rims and lowering springs etc. lmao! Anyways it's nice to be a part of this forum. I hope to get lots of input and feedbacks from you pros out there!

Best regards,

Ray

Hey Ray!! Welcome, WOW!! Don"t know if I coulda" traded a G35 for a Mazda3, but at least you have/had the option of a 5-sp w/the Mazda. Nice car, the G35"s.
The standard in spring seems to be Eibach, and the Prokit w/get you 1"-1.2" which is not really enough to worry too much about your stock shocks. they can come later.
Since you live in a snow-free state, consider spending a lot less on sway bars. The Eibach"s are the same as the Mazdaspeed bars and a good overall choice imo. If you want a little more, the RB"s, Hotchkis or Cobbsways are the way to go.
I myself have a set of H&R springs (used,) SPC camber arms&Koni Yellows(very slightly used) in the waiting and am considering the Eibach sways for my situation.

thank you for the welcome virgin1! yeah my g35 was a nice car indeed, but i got the itch to get a new car and wanted a more economical car with space so i got my mazda 3. im really excited to start getting my mods going. lol! Question for you, i saw a hatchback 08 that had an spoiler extension and was wondering where i can get them as well as aftermarket grilles? if you can shoot me some links i would really appreciate it!

thank you for your time!

Welcome to the forum, I personally drive a 94 Mx6 (still runnin strong!) but I like those hatchbacks. I wouldn't trade a G35 coupe for one... but I think u made a smart decision.
