    Mazda3 Sport 2007 w/ 100K miles

    The most common thing to break on the 3 is the passenger side engine mount, so have a look at that. As long as all maintence has been done it should be ok. Some people have said that mazda 3s start to burn oil after 100,000 miles. I've seen posts on another forum with a few people with almost...

    Rust?

    I've got a bit of rust on the rear wheel wells on my 08. I applied clear bra film to the lip but I don't think that it will stop any more rust spots.

    You don't plug up the hole, you wouldn't get any air into the engine.

    SRS Catback?

    You'll like it. Although the quaility isn't the greatest most people agree it's one of the best sounding exhausts for the 3 out there.

    SRS Catback?

    It's decent enough for the price. It does rust but the only metal you can see is the rear muffler/canister. So just be sure to give it a cleaning once in a while. The rust on the other pipes would take a long time to actually rust through.

    SRS Catback?

    I live in Missouri so a little bit of everything. I just got under the car yesterday and decided to see what some mothers metal polish would do and was suprised to see that it almost took all the rust of the rear muffler.

    SRS Catback?

    There is about a 20 page thread on ************ discussing this exhaust. I have had it for about a year and you get what you pay for. It's a great sounding exhaust but it will eventually start rusting. The seller I believe has a 2 year warranty on the exhaust and seems to take care of customers...

    CORKSPORT 'Power Series' Cold Air Box For The CorkSport SRI System

    It's not out for the first gen but I wish they'd make one. They said a while back if there was enough interest then they would make one.

    Noob! Random Mod questions!

    35w and 55w are just the wattage ratings. 3000k=yellow and the higher you go the more blue it would be. I recommend 6000k= white with a hint of blue. The higher kelvin you go the more light output you lose.
