Don’t know… some Mazda warehouse somewhere I suppose. I only needed two, these are the upgraded rear “R package” springs for my car. I ordered a shitload of other stuff from Mazda at the same time, and was kind of surprised when I opened up the box and all that’s in there is one spring. :lol:

I’m doing a full option-package conversion on my car this year that will allow me to do some suspension upgrades and weight reduction without changing my class.

Power steering? Gone. A/C? Who needs it in a convertible? Power windows? Buh-bye. Radio? Baleeted!

I do not know if you ever plan on going SM again or not. If you are do not alter your wiring harness, even for the radio. Not sure the specifics for SM, but IT is pretty anal for 5 oz. of wires…

So you’re running just one spring in the back for weight reduction? :lol:

At least you should have the time for everything else to show up on get in on the car.

And it should be DELORTED!!!

ummm here is a question… how much weight did you save by loosing power windows… i mean really what MAYBE 5 lbs? just take a big dump before a race and make it so u dont have to reach onto the passenger seat

Yeah, about 5 lbs for the power windows, about 8 for the power steering, 40 for the A/C, 50 for the roll bar, and maybe 5-7 for the fancy stock stereo system. Oh, and don’t think I’ve forgotten about weight reduction on the driver, I’ve been working on that too… along with running an almost empty gas tank, and draining the windshield washer bottle.

Having the power windows isn’t worth the potential of a protest at a National Tour because an R Package car did not have them. Pacakage conversions have to be complete to be legal. Honestly, the car is small enough that I barely even have to lean over to roll up the passenger window anyway. Not to mention I’m not normally opening and closing the windows in this car.

Only reason I even posted it at all, really…
