Most of them are Mazda parts. And often, you will find them for the same price or cheaper at the dealer. Try http://www.mazdaformance.com

Not to down Mazdatrix but I purchased a s.s Clutch Flex Line off them recently. Turns out, the Internal wall collapsed causing me a lot of problems. I went through 4 Slave Cylinders before I found out the new line was no good. I got my refund and simutaneously ordered a Rotary Oil Fill Cap from them.

I've had excellent luck with them.. all parts show up in a timely fashion..

my only thing was the ABS elimination kit was kinda ajoke.. like a T and a 12" rubber brake line.. yup that's it.. had to hand bend some of the lines to make it work.. now my brake lines leak... (i'm sure i ovalized them a little) so i'll be redoing my brakes soon

The sales rep was dumbfounded with my situation. Again, as mentioned In my previous thread, probably got a bad one. However, don't say I didn't tell you so.

I've had very good dealings w/ Mazdatrix.

They are my favorite place to buy all my RX-7 parts from-for example, I replaced ALL the little parts on the engine when I did my conversion and Mazdatrix came through w/ almost everything I needed and were able to get them to me in only a couple days- as usual. I even prefer to purchase my Racing Beat products from Mazdatrix instead of RB since they have such fast shipping! And Dave Lemon has helped me w/ his extensive knowledge and experience.

My local Mazda dealer usually takes 1 1/2 to 2 weeks to get my parts, they cost more and they have absolutely no knowledge of the rotary to answer my questions. I hope they shape up w/ the RX-8 comming out...

Yea, no kidding about the RX-8 comment. Imagine what the dealership check ups will be like.

Its a 1.3 liter, so its gets 1 quart of oil.........

I basicly got about 80% of my parts needed for my TII engine pull/install. However, the last 20% came from Mazdaformance.com I would have bought ALL of my parts from Mazdaformance.com if had know about them earlier.

Use Mazdaformance.com they are normally cheaper and Brian is great to work with.
