Hey guys, hows it going? My name is Jake and I drive a Mazda3 2.3L. I got some pics of my car if you care to view. (Sorry if it's the wrong viewing format, new to these Forums :p)

Where exactly are you located? I've been seeing a lot more 3i's than 3s like mine as of late. But Ti. Grey with tint huh? I'll make sure to lookout for it. :) Oh and under the hood stock is very....uninspiring, lol. I can't speak for the 3i but it's mostly plastic covers and the plastic mani. :(

we live in blacklick, but work in westerville. i work on schrock between state and cleveland, and she works at the corner of main/cleveland. its nothing special, but its hers, so i cant do much. ive been trying to get her to lower it, but the only way that will happen, is if i buy the parts, and im not sure i want to drop that much money on HER car. lol

Lol, I'm looking at Springs myself. I can't decide how much I wanna lower it though. I've got ~2.5 inches of wheel gap stock and It's a toss up between Skunk2's (1.5F & 1.3R), Eibach Sportlines (1.8F&R) and Tein S-Techs (2.0F & 1.5R)

totally different cars....but i have sportlines on my car and they ride and perform great

How much is the Sportline drop for 'Stangs? Your drop looks really aggressive. :thumbup: I'm just worried about the potential bounciness since they are progressive springs, but GODDAMN do they look purdy!

$210 for 79-04 models and a little more for the new body....a 79 fox has the same platform as an 04 gt lol

theyre $205 for your car...my mom has a mazda 3 that i used to daily drive...fun little car, slow as balls, but its pretty peppy for what it is

 

 

oh...and theres definately no bounce here

 

 

not sure how it works for mazdas, but on a stang if you drop it more than 1.5" then you have to get adjustable caster/camber plates or else you can't correct the massive negative camber from the drop....i have c/c plates but theyre not installed yet, my front tires got chewed up nicely with my drop and not having c/c plates
