Car rank up by 2 ranks.
-Installed parts: wide rear view mirror, sports steering wheel, front under spoiler, various body reinforcement parts
I had the parts that were attached to the 20S that I was riding before transplanted at the timing of the 20X replacement.
Wide rear view mirror: It felt a little strange at first, but it's convenient once you get used to it.It also reduces blind spots and increases safety.
Sports steering wheel: Normal is not bad, but this steering wheel has an easy-to-grip shape design and the feel of Nappa leather is already the best.The steering wheel is always in contact with you while you are in the car, and it feels so good that you feel good all the time while driving.
Front under spoiler: This exquisite overhanging condition is addictive, but once you put it on, the normal looks unsatisfactory and you can't go back.It's a little expensive part, but I think it's roughly balanced with self-satisfaction.
Body reinforcement parts group (excluding torsion control beam): Just by driving normally, you will feel a sense of rigidity comparable to that of the BMW 3 series.The corner response is also greatly improved, and it becomes fun to turn the steering wheel.Furthermore, although it may be only in the case of Mazda3, the sound quality of audio is also improved for some reason.However, as a demerit, the weight of the steering wheel will increase due to the feeling of pushing up and the steering wheel being taken by the unevenness of the road surface.
Motion Control Beam: Personally, it's a highly recommended part.First of all, the feeling of being pushed up by the body reinforcement parts group has been greatly alleviated.Even the joints of the highway can be lightly cleaned with one shot as if nothing had happened.It also reduces road noise (just do a video search to find out why).And whether it's a straight line or a corner, it feels like it's running smoothly on the road.
If I had to choose one of these parts regardless of budget, it would be the motion control beam.
The total amount of all parts is quite expensive, but if you do this alone, the car's rating will definitely increase by 1 rank, no, by 2 ranks.It's no longer MAZDA3, it feels like it's gone beyond MAZDA6 to MAZDA7 (although there is no such car).
In addition, the overall impression of these parts is a little better on the 20X than on the 20S, but this may be due to the weight of the vehicle and the special suspension settings for the 20X.
By the way, at the time of the 20S, I also installed a premier tail muffler in addition to these, but this is also said to be sound, improved power characteristics, and it does not affect fuel consumption at all, so it was the best.
