Call me crazy but I think they should make an R3 conversion kit for older models
Is anyone else on board with this? I mean I don't think there's anything I can necessarily do myself. But by getting the word out, maybe some companies will hear about it if enough people are interested?
Maybe a couple seperate kits?
like an interior package with the recaro seats.
then an exterior package with a body kit and the rims?
I don't know, it's just an idea. throw your ideas out there if you're interested..

You can order the parts required from your dealership or though Mazdaspeed(comp).
It would be nice though if someone went though the effort of listing out all the part numbers required for each of your different scenarios.

^ me too.
I mean... take the Mazda 3 for instance. From the front, it looks like the Joker.
As for the R3 conversion: as it was mentioned, AutoExe has conversion bumpers for the Series I cars. There was a thread with pics here on the forum showing them.
Edit: Here
You can ask Mazmart if they still can get this for you.

I for one love the smiling look, so +1 for that. I just love the new fogs being used on the s2 fronts!
Autoexe has the se03c bumper and I remember seeing a thread for that same style front for the s1's from RE-Amemiya that was in development.

uh?
What are you smoking?
You can easily out perform a R3 with your own aftermarket parts.
In fact the R3 under performs the first generation.
Proven fact R3 stops slower
R3 slower in 1/4 mile.
If you really want to make it like an R3 go to Chryler dealer and buy a Jeep steering whell.
On your way back, stop at Chevron and get yoursely that happy face car sticker and put it on your car.
