I went for an AWR passenger mount and absolutely hated it. The vibrations over stock were unbearable for daily use. Others here will probably tell you otherwise, but that was my experience. I went back to OEM and never looked back. Given that you say you drive primarily on the highway and in the...

Sounds good. Shipping to Vancouver, BC?

Had front end clunking that I thought was the end links/sway bar. Turned out that both lower control arms/ball joints were shot. So... That's fixed. All that's left is to fix the dead AC compressor...

Hi, interested in the AC compressor. Details on mileage and working condition? Thanks!

It wasn't too bad once I got cruising, though there was still a noticable thrumming that was skin to having loud tires. At idle it sucked. Low RPM sucked even more. It was embarrassing having others in the car when I pulled away from a stop. It felt and sounded like I was driving a broken down...

Finally sold my AWR #3 mount... Worst purchase ever. I particularly like how AWR never responded to my email nor did they post my 3-star review (the only reviews they have posted are 5-star...) Happy to be rid of it and to go back to OEM. I feel like those who recommend going with the AWR...

I wasn't trying to dispute anything, just saying it's not necessary to get the whole console. Why would you pay to ship the whole console when you don't need it?

I have an '02 with the '03 cupholder... in the original '02 console. It literally drops right in.

Price dropped

And to Vancouver, BC, Canada...?

You definitely do NOT need the whole centre console to do the cupholder upgrade. You'll save a ton on shipping by ditching that.

Good tires (some super sticky Direzza Star Specs, for example), and refreshing the suspension with new bushings and end links and ensuring your struts are up to snuff should be more than enough for fun daily driver. You could look into a larger rear anti-roll bar, but you'll need a few other...

It always annoys me every time I see the JDM tails how Mazda screwed them up so much for the NA market...

Still awaiting its forever home! (drive)

I have an AWR 70 durometer poly #3 (passenger side) mount. See for sale thread: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123850062-AWR-3-Engine-Mount-(1999-2003)-70-Durometer

Part no. Indicates its a Mazdaspeed unit, NOT MP3.

Mount is still available

PM'd

If you're doing all that you should get some poly motor mounts, too. I have a 70 durometer AWR #3 (passenger) mount for sale if you're interested.

The MP3 was a separate model slotted in between the standard Protege and the Mazdaspeed Protege. It was naturally aspirated rather than turbocharged, featuring a number of components from Racing Beat, along with a retuned ECU mapped to run on Premium fuel with a bit more power and a better...
