    Re: Good lowering options

    If your car will be winter driven then I'd shy away from coilovers or anything adjustable. The salt will seize the adjustment mechanisms. Absolute pain in the ass. Wish I knew that before I put them...
  4. Re: Brake pads : OEM Pads vs Aftermarket performance

    Stoptech 309/street performance is the best all rounder pad. Been using them since 2013 for DD use, track use, autocross, Tail of the Dragon and more

    It can handle track abuse.

    Re: Opinions

    It'll look great. As for 215 vs 225, are you tracking it or doing autocross, or constantly pushing your tires to the edges of grip on every onramp?
    If yes, go 225
    If no, enjoy the cheaper price and...
  6. Re: You think of tracking your car ... maybe do a advanced driving course first

  9. Re: is anyone running any rust coatings/protection or undercoatings for our cars?

    Rust Check definitely drills holes. All holes are in areas you will never see with the doors closed and plugged with black caps.

    Re: Gas cap not closing

    It's possible your gas cap is old/worn and needs to be replaced. Have you tried a new one? Should be pretty cheap
  11. Re: is anyone running any rust coatings/protection or undercoatings for our cars?

    My family and I have been having Rust Check done (same concept as Krown) for all our cars for over a decade. Never had any rust issues as a result. Definitely worth it. Only paint point is Rust Check...

    Re: To see or not to sell.. 2015 GT

    Keep it. Find fun local roads and go for drives. Get into autocross and other fun events next season. Have fun with it. Working from home doesn't mean you're trapped at home.

    I'm in the same boat...
  15. Re: Making it louder ! Exhaust, muffler, resonator

    Removing resonators is a great way to increase drone. Not saying don't, just saying be careful with that approach.

    One thing I noticed that makes it louder (that's also free!) is to move or remove...

    Re: Handling upgrades for 2016 3 GT sedan?

    Front and rear sway bars will help but you should adjust your springs and shocks to your liking first. Your choice of bars will vary depending on suspension setup.

    Re: 2015 Mazda3 - hood shaking @ hwy speeds

    If you ever drive in the US the speed limit can be up to 80mph. That's a terrible excuse. Record the issue and complain to Mazda.
