you can't get them. (unless you find a used set)
mazsport is a crook, is bankrupt, and out of business.

hackdss: why do you want these particular coils?
the issue some people have with the mazsport kit is the ignitor box doesn't always work properly.

There are other options out there.

I ordered the BHR coils, then the price went up on me before they could ship them out over $100 so in the end cost difference between OEM and these just wasn't worth it.

I have 47,900km right now.. manual 2007.
All city driving, I get about 300km.
In 2008, I got around 325km.
In 2007 when I first got the car, I got about 375km.
These are all values when the "light" came on.

Still running on original plugs, so it's time for a plug change.

Also will be doing all fluid changes.

Stock coils are doing fine. No misfires at redline.
