    I am not positive but I want to say 120k. We still have the car, I'll try to remember and check the k's. Easy job to swap an engine in these, providing you have a hoist :)

    Re: MS3 rear valence on '08.5 Mazda3 install

    just get an 08 MZ3 bumper and the MS3 valence. The parts to swap bumpers properly are around 100bux if you go to Joe at Toronto Mazda, plus the purchase of the bumper skin itself.
