I gotta ask, whats so good about the power plant frame?

thewird

 

Its red and i have a red car so looks nice underneath the car

but most of all its reinforced

 

reinforced to reduce chassis twist

 

I have a strut bar over the engine bay, would the power plant frame make much of a difference? I do take my car to the track occasionally.

A reinforced PPF will better withstand the stresses of launching and wheel hop encountered at the drag strip.

 

I don't launch hard or drag so I'm fine right

The bushings on the swaybars are made for those specific swaybars; I can't guarantee that any other bushings will work, so I'd strongly suggest you purchase them. If others turn out to work, great...and so you spent an extra few $$. But if no other bushings fit, and I can't get the bushings anymore, you're kinda left high and dry... Seems like a no-brainer situation to me

Everybody get ready plz because I'll have payment info posted up shortly, and I won't be able to wait days and weeks for ppl to pay. Plz have funds ready to pay immediately so we can secure the parts while they're still available.

Thanks,
~Ramy

no MS hood?

 

R Spec is long gone. Not sure what the status on the standard hood is. Ramy?

 

Replicas (or used originals) are available. *If it isn't in the catalog, it isn't available guys!*

Thanks,
~Ramy

 

noob question... how many bushings do i need to get for sway bar set?
thx

 

^^ i'm assuming 4 total for both swaybars.., but wanna make sure... >.>

 

I would think so too, but I'm waiting for Ramy to confirm since he's ordered these before.

 

On the Swaybars, what makes these so special, the stockers are $140 a pop (front or rear) ! Besides that they say Mazdaspeed And do they have to be green ?

 

ok, after doing some homework, i'm gonna have to ditch the swaybars and just go with only getting the PPF.

turns out MAZDASPEED swaybars are made by Eibach. sorry if i burst some bubbles for anyone.

 

Is the price on MS touring coilovers 1350 shipped like it is on the website or is it 1375 + shipping like you have listed in this thread?

 

Link, IIRC, yes it's 4 bushings. And why are you surprised if the parts are made by Eibach? Mazdaspeed had Eibach make many of their suspension parts...

Rookie84, plz ignore the website. This is a separate GB, plus the suspension on the website is completely different.

 

Front and Rear Diffusers ordered.

thewird

 

Oh... I'm still interested. Can you explain what is different between the MS touring coilovers and the one on the website? Thanks.

 

Simple. One on the website's been discontinued for a while, but I can occasionally source them in excellent condition USED.

 

Why does that Carbon rear view mirror cover say only for 99+ FDs? Were the rear view mirrors different in the 99 spec cars? Will a 99+ RHD rear view mirror work in a LHD car, or will the viewing angle be messed up even though you can tilt it etc?


Its too bad they never made a triangulated Titanium strut bar. I'd have bought one of those.

 

Sorry but one last question... so are the specs same for the one on the website and MS touring? If not, what are the spring rates and level of adjustment on the MS touring?
