Product Release! CorkSport 2010+ Mazdaspeed 3 Axle Back Exhaust

Have you had your eye on a CorkSport 2010+ Mazdaspeed 3 Exhaust, but have not had the monies to shell out for an entire cat back exhaust system? If so, CorkSport has come up with a solution for you. Introducing the CorkSport Axle Back Exhaust for the 2010+ Mazdaspeed 3!

The CorkSport Axle Back Exhaust has been designed to replace your muffler with a straight through pipe to minimize exhaust restrictions and provide the nice deep tone you can expect from an aftermarket exhaust system, but for a fraction of the price.

As with our Cat Back Exhaust system, the Axle back exhaust features corrosion resistant T-304 construction to ensure a long life and is manufactured with exacting standards using mandrel bent 80mm piping for a smooth flow and TIG welds for a strong, clean connection.

The most visible part of your exhaust, the tips, feature 100mm polished stainless steel that will accent your Mazdaspeed 3 and provide a nice clean aftermarket look.

It is true, you will see more power gains by going for the full cat back exhaust system and in the event that you want to add a downpipe and racepipe later the cat-back exhaust is a better fit for you, but if you are looking for a little power, a lot of good looks, and a nice deep tone on an otherwise stock exhaust system, the CorkSport Axle Back Exhaust is just the thing for you!

The CorkSport 2010+ Mazdaspeed 3 Axle Back Exhaust is available in our online catalog.

After many months of testing and development, CorkSport is happy to announce the release of our all-new CorkSport Front and Rear Brake Pads for the Mazdaspeed 3 and Front Brake Pads for the Mazdaspeed 6!

Designed using a proprietary semi-metallic and ceramic formula, CorkSport brake pads offer superior stopping capability without compromising wear and unlike other metallic brake pads on the market, do not require a “warm-up” period to perform to their full potential.

The CorkSport brake pads are a low dust solution that will help to keep your wheels nice and clean and this highly durable compound provides less fade on your brake pads. Made for superior performance in all weather conditions, the CorkSport brake pads have been thoroughly tested for endurance and braking power both on and off the track.

“Upgrading your brake pads will provide performance improvements for your Mazdaspeed and added safety for your vehicle.” Said CorkSport owner and race car driver, Derrick Ambrose “Having driven on these pads extensively on the track, I can say without a doubt that you will notice improved stopping performance and braking responsiveness with CorkSport brake pads on your vehicle”

The CorkSport Brake Pads come in sets for fronts and for rears and are priced competitively.

Adjustable Mazda 2 Struts and Shocks at Last! Pre-Sale Now On!!

CorkSport is happy to announce the pre-sale of our highly anticipated CorkSport Adjustable Struts and Shocks for the Mazda 2! For those of you that have been following development of our strut and shock kit for the Mazda 2 on Mazdas247, the time has finally arrived for our pre-sale!

The CorkSport Mazda 2 Struts and Shocks are 15 way adjustable with the #1 setting similar to the OEM ride. This will allow you to customize your ride to your driving style and limit body roll to make your car more predictable and stable even without the addition of lowering springs.

CorkSport Shocks and Struts are made with gas charged twin tube shock absorbers to allow the shock to react faster and more predictably, for a quicker response time and will help to keep the tire firmly planted on the road. You will have the ability to change both rebound and compression damping simultaneously for greatly improved ride quality. This variable tuning range makes it possible to use for daily driving, B-Spec, and auto-crossing.

As an added bonus, the CorkSport Mazda 2 Struts and Shocks can be paired with the Mazda 2 H&R Lowering Springs for an additional 10% savings on the springs!

All pre-purchases will be charged at time of purchase and will ship the week of January 7th, 2013. If you plan to order other parts when you make this purchase, they will be shipped at the time the struts and shocks do, so if you want other parts sooner, place it as a separate order.

For more information or to purchase today, please visit this product listing in the CorkSport catalog at https://www.corksport.com/mazda-2-shocks-and-struts-by-corksport-performance.html

Project Mazdaspeed6

Project MS6 was purchased used off of Craigslist with almost 90k miles on it in early 2012. It is an ’07 Mazdaspeed 6 GT and was completely stock when it was picked up. Since this is not a new car and has been available for many years you’re likely already familiar with what the car was from the factory. It has the same turbo charged power train as the MS3 but is an AWD sedan and is larger and heavier than the MS3.

The first thing we did to it was what anyone modifying a car should start with, the CorkSport Stage II Intake with Turbo Inlet Pipe. Within a week we had also added an HKS BOV and well as one of our Top Mount Intercoolers.

Our engineering department jumped straight into development mode and within the first couple of weeks we had a prototype CorkSport Short Shifter and Catted Downpipe on the car. Today, we are running a CorkSport Catted Downpipe with the factory cat back to keep it in sleeper status. It has a much better exhaust flow with close to factory noise levels.

With the intake and exhaust systems both already upgraded we started testing some other products on the car. We fitted it with a CorkSport Oil Catch Can which proved incredibly valuable at getting 90k miles worth of condensation and such out of the crank case. We also began prototyping a Rear Motor Mount (just released this week) for the Mazdaspeed 6 and have been running it on this car for quite some time now. The Rear Motor Mount made a noticable improvement in throttle response. Changes in the throttle are felt instantly now instead of a second later after the mounts have absorbed some of the torque.

With the speed6 now able to breathe in all of the cold air it wants combined with the free flowing exhaust we have seen some serious power improvements so we thought we’d move on to making some handling improvements to complement it. We added the ever so important CorkSport Front and Rear Sway Bars which improved the handling of the car exponentially. Next, we wanted to get the center of gravity down a bit which we accomplished with a set of H&R lowering springs. Now that the Mazdaspeed 6 had a proper stance we thought it looked a bit odd with the factory wheels so we threw on a set of factory RX8 wheels.

With future plans for this car in mind, we recently decided to upgrade from the CorkSport Top Mount Intercooler to the CorkSport Front Mount Intercooler for Short Ram Intake. Oh, and I can’t forget the ever important CorkSport license plate frames and the vinyl across the windshield (I’m pretty sure the vinyl added +5 HP).

There is a lot more to come with this car as we’re currently working on more prototypes for her that I can’t talk about yet, but all of you CorkSport fans with MS6’s, we haven’t forgotten about you and there are great new products on the way!

Until next time,

Dustin

Double Product Release! CorkSport Mazdaspeed 3/Mazda 3 and Mazdaspeed 6 Rear Motor Mount

CorkSport is happy to announce a special double release of the CorkSport Mazdaspeed 3/Mazda 3 and Mazdaspeed 6 Rear Motor Mounts!

You might be asking yourself right about now, “There are a lot of motor mounts on the market, what makes yours so different?”

Excellent question!

Improved Rear Motor Mount

Let’s start with the Mazdaspeed 3/Mazda 3 Rear Motor Mount. Designed as a direct replacement of the OEM motor mount, the CorkSport Rear Motor Mount provides improved handling and shifting by replacing your factory mount and rubber bushings with an upgraded mount and urethane thrust surface for added stiffness and improved driver responsiveness.

We designed the urethane thrust surface to be larger than other products on the market. We found this provides the added stiffness you desire while maintaining the comfortable ride you want and reducing the effect of NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) in your cabin.

What’s more our CorkSport Mazdaspeed 3/Mazda 3 Rear Motor Mount is a 2 for 1! We have designed the part to allow customers to easily swap between our 70 and 80 durometer urethane for an easy transition between daily driving and track days!

The Mazdaspeed 3/Mazda 3 Rear Motor Mount is powder-coated black and includes zinc-coated sleeves for a durable, long-lasting life.

The Best Mazdaspeed 6 Rear Motor Mount

Now, onto the Mazdaspeed 6 Rear Motor Mount. This part has been designed as a single piece that again maintains your OEM fitment, but replaces the factory bushings with large urethane thrust surfaces for improved handling and shifting while maintaining ride quality.

Best Quality Mazdaspeed 6 RMM

This high-quality, great-looking part is black anodized with the zinc coated sleeves for a long-lasting, durable finish. Available in 70 durometer urethane, the CorkSport Mazdaspeed 6 Rear Motor Mount has also been designed with a larger thrust surface for better handling without all the NVH associated with other stiffer and smaller urethane surfaces on the market.
