Use the 'Search' button and cue Mazdaspeed or Racing Beat Springs. Tons of threads about these two popular springs.

I did use the search. No specific information on the racing beat springs. If you look I want very specific response's on the springs. I do not mention anything about mazdaspeed so I am unsure why you even mention it? Problem is too many perople refer to racing beat using RB which the search function won't pick up.

I'm on RacingBeat springs.
The drop is very mild, and the spring rate is good.
I decided on RacingBeat springs cause they don't drop the car too low.
My JDM Kenstyle bodykit hangs low off the body (2.25 inches) and I didn't really want to go any lower than where it's at right now.....

I have them and i can tell you your rear end is gonna sag a lil bit more than your front (although Bigbadad's looks better than mine) but they are worth it.

Big bad dad - Beautiful job car looks very nice. Where did you get those mirrors?


Twtraudio - are you a sedan or atch can't tell from photo and your sig dosen't say. You have a 6i whoci is the reason for the rear to be a little lower(sag as you described) so I'll assume you have a hatch?

Thanks for the responses.

Any one else????

Thanks, I got the mirrors on a group buy on this forum board several years ago.
They're power folding mirrors, but the passenger side motor crapped out already
I just unplugged the mirrors, so they just stay open.

Some pics of my '04 Wagon on RB springs over on 6crew

Scroll down - same screen name.

The springs are a great - not too low, but took away the wallow/lean. The RB rear bar helped lots too!

Hope this helps,
