We have Semi titanium cat back all the way to semistainless steel available. In the middle is lightweight stainless steel. There's like 4 different exhaust systems.

We have three different stages of coilovers, as well as Carbon Fiber or Aluminum strut tower braces.

THIS STUFF IS AS GOOD OR BETTER THAN CUSCO. NOW MAZDAS CAN JOIN THE ELITE. **** all the hondas get all this JDM stuff, but now we can too.

Thanks to guys like myself who've been busting our asses for almost a year to get some **** over here. Well it's finally happening.

This is guaranteed, I'm a distributor, autoexe is still adding up towards US availability. Once that happens we'll have JDM aesthetics as well as JDM performance parts. Woo Hoo!!!!!!!

See ya, Rishie

 

Thank you SIR.

Rishie

 

Oh yeah, I forgot those.

The prices might scare away the faintly hearted. hehe.

The exhaust systems are great value.

Semi Titanium is $880.00 for both the wagon and sedan
Lightweight full stainless steel around $650.00.

As far as right now, these are the systems in production.

Suspension from $1400 - $1850.00. All coilover kits include pillowball mounts or rigid mounts. Interchangable spring rates on all models.

Carbon and Aluminum tower shaft bars available from $140.00 to $250.00.

These prices do not include shipping or any applicable taxes if in California.

This should give you an idea. When interested please feel free to contact me. We are taking preorders right now, as that's how I can guarantee receipt.

Thanks, Rishie

 

If I were to upgrade the strut bars (I have a protege 5) and wanted to get the rear tower and wanted carbon would it be wise to get the fron as well since its a different material than the stock front one? Or will they be ok being different materials for a while?

 

I don't think you'd notice a difference between the aluminum and the carbon fiber in our vehicles. It's more of an aesthetic thing at that point. If you want uniformity then go for it.

You'd be happy with aluminum or carbon. both are extremely light. Better than what we got.

Rishie

The only way to really make our cars better are to make them as light as possible without sacrificing any of its luxuries.

Lightweight exhaust and wheels are a damn good start. My car gets up, ask wheelguuuruu.

 

when do we get to see some pics of the ARD sports hatchback???

 

I really like the look of the strut bars! Would they fit on my lowly 2001 LX? What are the prices and are they shipping yet? Very Cool!

 

Rishie,
You are the shiznit! With folks like you working for us our Protege have came a long way. Hell look at all the Pros in motor-racing for this year. Must be half a dozen racing Speed World Touring Challenge, and a couple racing in the various 1/4 mile associations in the pro ranks. Things are looking real good for all my Proteges.
Any-who I'm interested in the carbon strut tower bar and their (JIC) pillow ball upper strut mounts. Any chance of getting lower front tie-rod brace for gen3s? And some poly or urethane bushings i.e. motor mount inserts? Seems we have just about everything in the works except bushings. I'd love some of the Energy Suspension motor mount inserts, as would a few of us.
Thanks,
Keep up the good work I'm sure you'll be repaid for all your hard work soon $$$$$$!

 

I'll start making calls on the bushings next week. I'll have to call a couple of companies and see if anyone wants to bite.

Rishie

Thanks for the appreciation. It's been really frustrating for guys like me who've known what's been in production since before the car arrived, but couldn't talk about them or even know when they'd arrive.

So, no more waiting. I'm just gonna get the **** from Japan. The US doesn't know how to capitalize on time and consumer enthusiasm. hehe.

Money is not a concern, I just want Mazda to give us some recognition. My dream is to be contracted by Mazda to help them design future vehicles and prototypes.

Hence, the miata, 3 rotaries, and a prote5, plus the hybrid ProbeGT. Been loyal Mazdist for a decade now.
