NY Mazda Motorsports Sponsorship

I was just wondering if anyone had additional information on the Mazda Motorsports sponsorships. I recently was approved for my mine and I was looking at parts and cannot for the life of me figure out what parts they are advertising. A majority of the parts all say pdspart and does not specifiy a manufacture. Please help me out if anyone can.

is it true that if you belong to this, mazda has a record of you "racing the car" and they can deny warranty coverage? specifically the engine warranty?

ive heard stories around, not sure if they are true.

I have never heard of that happening and I know plenty of people who are part of it and have been for years. I am registered but never got around to submitting time slips.

I have never heard of Mazda doing that, but Mitsubishi is guilty of it. There have been instances of them trolling forums and voiding warranties if they could get enough info to do so.

Well trolling forums Mazda does as well and I know you can be flagged for being "modded" but that depends on the dealer. My dealer was/is pretty mod friendly.

been a member since the early 90's, they are getting very particular now about having results in or the system won't let you place an order

once you log in it will take you to a page where there are links to choose either the OE parts catalogs or the competition parts. In the Comp section there is a make/engine/etc. listing, but some things will show up in RX8 that don't show up in Renesis, etc. You can also search by part number or description, but the description stuff very rarely indicates which vehicle it's for so not much help. They also have some comp parts that if you don't know to ask for them you won't know they exist. Occasionally you can find a better price online or aftermarket, always best to check than just assume. It's kind of f'd up in a variety of ways, but it's better than nothing. More or less it's a budget operation that tries to scrimp by within the overall corporate structure so beggars should count there blessings ...
