thanks john for the compliment. the car is actually a bit lower already. looks sweet in person. i’ll bring it to one of the meets. i’m getting a lot of attention because i doubt anyone has seen a lowered 5, with a loud ass engine before. i drive by lots of kids in their 5’s and they ask me questions and wat not about why its loud, and what did i lower it with. it seems none of them understood that when mazda build the 3 and the 5, it was based on the exact same chassis. so anything can be put on the 3, can be swapped straight into a 5. gonna do an exhaust system to it along with the turbo next year or so. lol. the turbo mazda 3’s (not mazdaspeed) out there that i;ve seen have over 400hp. these engines can take a beating.
My buddy has a 3.
He’s gone through 2 engines and 3 trannies…and it’s stock. Good thing the shit was under warranty.
