How come your not upgrading the shocks/struts? When I think of handling I think of a package not just a set of springs

re-read the thread then scrappy as i've mentioned possibly doing a set of shocks later to make diy coilovers. they aren't a perfect set of coilovers but from what i've been told by a few people who've done it, H&R springs with koni shocks make a great set of coilovers.

Possibly but you already ordered sway bars? I thought you got eibach springs according to the thread

Alright so an update through 9/9/06:
Bought a VG Sharkfin antenna:http://www.therpmstore.com/product_info.php?products_id=344&osCsid=7588affcb1ee3d9a09f28e8865025990

got it via group buy on mazda6club.com for 58 bucks and it's painted to match de car. i won't have it til' mid october which is a good thing.

Selling my stock rims and buying ALT Masq's: http://www.altwheels.com/products/product.php?id=44&pg=3&cid=2 again through a group buy on mazda6club.com

Ordering Eibach Sportline lowering springs to lower the car 2"front/1.5" rear then rolling the fenders so as to not rub my pretty new 18"s. I was going to go with H&R but they don't make any for my car in the 3.0L v6. Also thought about Tein S-Tech line but I hear they aren't stiff enough and the car will continue to lower over time.

Then i'll be ordering racing beat front/rear sways and i'll call it a year. Opinions again wanted.

Possibly get new shocks/struts but you already ordered sway bars. I thought you were ordering eibach instead? So my point still stands

i'm confused on the shock/strut part? i don't need new shocks at this time as i don't need perfect cornering at this time. the H&R with Koni's was an example not what i'm doing. I've got the eibachs on order but not here yet and they are better springs than the H&R's so i can't imagine them being worse with the koni shocks.

i'm confused on what exactly you're trying to say to me i guess.

 

[scrappy 10+ year member]

What I am saying is that I would get upgraded shock/struts like the konis before getting sway bars. Just like everything else your suspension is only as good as the weakest link ie: stock shocks/struts. Good luck keep us updated

 

[bumpin_blazer 5,000+ posts]

i'm wanting to reduce body roll and increase cornering as much as possible for now. again i never said i want a course murderer i mean it is FWD but i want it to go into and out of corner's better. now given i can get front/rear sway bars and springs for less than the price of koni shocks.

yeah 600 bucks for an intake, not a chance in hell. i don't care if it does modify my MAF sensor, 600 bucks is outrageous.

I didn't know they were selling them for 600 bucks now!! Geez!! When they were being prototyped you could get them for around $250-$300. I should have charged more!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

250-300 is the price for a normal name brand CAI. sad thing is they sell the MAFCI tuner for 250 and i bought an intake that is identicle in shape and tube sizing to the injen one. so 80 bucks for my intake, 250 for tuner, 330 i have a 15-20hp dyno proven gain.
