doesn't seem too bad. mazdaformance.com is about $1100 for all that.

edit: mazdastuff.com is $1020 for all parts.

hmmmm seems high to me....do you know what you can get just the springs for? as over on mazdastuff.com the strut set is just $460, and the springs are $200....so do the math....that is $660.

NOW does the kit you are talking about come with the "stabilizer bars" as well? I call them sway bars.....that is another $360....

so if your kit has ALL THREE parts in it...then $1000 would be right.....if you are only getting struts and springs....$1000 is a rip off.....buy them from mazdastuff.com which in case you didn't know is an actual mazda dealer in Austin Texas.

sway bars were in there too.
