was just wondering if MP3 struts are worth getting? or should i just wait for an aftermarket company (who knows how long though) to make them?

how much should i expect to pay from the dealer if i get the MP3 struts?

will they fit a 1999 Pro?

thanks!

 

you got the mazdaspeed shocks as an option.

 

I have the MP3 Tokico struts. They are very good. I also was thinking about the MS strusts, but they were a lot more. I am very happy with the MP3 Tokico struts and I am also very happy I did not spend more money. I am sure the MS struts are much better, no dougbt about it, but for street use the Tokicos a MORE than enough. IMO

 

did you install new springs too? how is your ride and handling?

 

I'm waiting on Tokico. Their webiste says that they are scheduled to release their "blue" HD non-adjustable struts and Illumina adjustable struts this fall or winter.

Dealer net for the MP3 struts is $405 per set, and you can buy them for this price if you are a member of the Mazdaspeed Team Support program. Dealer retail prices vary wildly; I've seen quotes from $450 up to ~$700 on this forum. The reason I'm waiting for the regular Tokicos is that the blue HD's are usually a good deal cheaper than the MP3's, usually $60-$80 per strut street price.

Answer to the final question is yes, they will bolt up with no other changes.
