No Leaks, No Mess, No Cleanup! An Innovative Coolant Solution.

CORKSPORT Mazdaspeed 3 and Mazda 3 2.5L Coolant Tank

Coolant resevoir for the Mazdaspeed version 1.

The common problem of coolant tank failures has gone too far. Leaks, drips, and holes are not something we will stand for. So what is the solution? The CorkSport 2010-2013 Mazdaspeed 3 and Mazda 3 2.5L Coolant Tank Reservoir! The CorkSport Coolant Tank Reservoir is made of a durable aluminum to prevent the leaks that can plague so many stock coolant tanks. We realized quickly though that without X-ray vision it was hard to tell when to top up your coolant, so we implemented a sight glass. Thanks to this sight glass you can easily spy low coolant levels and top up. We also included a high-pressure cap for increased performance and style.

The CorkSport 2010-2013 Mazdaspeed 3 and Mazda 3 2.5L Coolant tank requires no drilling and is a bolt-in replacement that won’t discolor over time. The Coolant tank is black to keep an OEM look in your engine bay, though it could be easily modified with decals or painting. With every CorkSport Coolant Tank getting pressure tested before it leaves our door, you can have peace of mind that you won’t have any more coolant tank leaks.

The Mazda Coolant Tank Reservoir is now available.

Veterans Helping Veterans With Mazdas

Our very own CorkSport sponsored driver Matt Kellogg was featured in the news in his home state of Texas for his help with honoring wounded warriors. We’ve known for a while how special Matt is and we think it’s fantastic that he is getting some more exposure for his cause. But enough of our bragging about him, check out the video below and get just a glimpse of what we’ve seen from him.

Thanks again to Matt for his service to his country and to others in need!

Representing CorkSport Mazda Performance

Representing CorkSport Mazda Performance.

Since starting here at CorkSport HQ, I find myself searching the lanes of traffic for Mazdas. I can’t deny that it gets my heart pumping a little bit when I see a Speed3, but that’s merely because I have a preference for them and the “zoom-zoom” effect.

What keeps me looking is that I don’t always see Mazdas of what I’ll call the “proper persuasion”. It may just be a Pacific Northwest thing, but there are a lot of sexy performance cars roaming the streets disguised as family vehicles. Now don’t get me wrong, a family car is always necessary, but after seeing what the enthusiasts are capable of, I get a little disappointed when I don’t see a CorkSport branded vehicle behind every Mazda emblem.

Over Labor Day weekend I was driving home from camping and having a conversation with a fellow car enthusiast (he’s into Mitsubishis, yuck) about how often we see cars “repping” their favorite performance brand. He was actually doing a great job of making me defensive, saying that he’d never seen a good looking performance Mazda. He said it was a rare occurrence out here to see a clean/stance one and then for it to also be repping CorkSport, “like seeking unicorn’s”. I was disagreeing with all that I had, and yes I mean that in reference to volume control.

We were in a deep, what I’ll refer to as an, “elevated and passionate” conversation, when low and behold, there in the lane just left of us, was a tiny 6” decal on the back right of a very clean Speed3 (Gen2). A perfectly pitched screech of “TOLD YOU SO” bellowed from my mouth, followed by a quick cell phone pic and a good long laugh at how “I (Kim) am always right, get used to it.”

Since then, we have found and rewarded the owner of this beautiful beast https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151905810739257&set=a.317272679256.181853.126409094256&type=1&theater, but it got a great conversation going in the office of “where is the best spot to place a decal?”

So, this is the question I pose to you, our readers:   “Where do you think is the perfect spot to rep your favorite performance brand?” I prefer them to go along with the elegant lines of the car, but others say that having them stand against those brings a slick look as well. What do you think?

Here are some of the pictures that we have seen the in past, please feel free to post yours so we can check it out!

Increase Room In Your Engine Bay with a New Battery Box

CorkSport 2010-2013 Mazdaspeed 3 ECU Relocation Battery Box

The Mazdaspeed 3 has a Battery Box that takes up more space than a watermelon in your refrigerator. Even worse, the stock ECU location can often interfere with intake upgrades. With these facts in mind, CorkSport decided to design a new Battery Box with a new location for the ECU.

With the new CorkSport 2010-2103 Mazdaspeed 3 ECU Relocation Battery Box, the ECU gets relocated towards the front of the engine bay and gets protected from dirt, grime, grease, and other unwanted contaminants. The ECU is mounted onto plastic like the factory configuration to prevent any possible interference that could occur with a metal box. Those of you in colder climates will be very happy to know that this box allows you to keep the standard group 35 batteries that are recommended and provided from Mazda. The new CorkSport Battery Box also allows for intakes up to 3.0 inches in size, and possibly larger to fit into your engine bay without cutting, drilling or otherwise modifying any parts or pieces of your Mazdaspeed 3. Simply install the new CorkSport Battery Box, which is completely bolt-in, and then utilize the extra room for your larger intake.

Mazdaspeed 3 Bolt in Battery box

The CorkSport 2010-2013 Mazdaspeed 3 ECU Relocation Battery Box is made of a durable matte finished FRP construction. All necessary parts, bolts, and brackets are included to install and no modifying is needed. CorkSport designed the Battery Box to cleanly integrate into your engine bay without standing out. You can paint it or customize it yourself if you choose, or leave it as-is for a stock OEM style appearance.

OEM Mazda look and it moves your ECU inside the battery box

The CorkSport 2010-2013 Mazdaspeed 3 ECU Relocation Battery Box is now available
