Putting a turbocharged engine in the GEN4 Mazda 3 was a step in the right direction for Mazda but it still misses the mark of a \u201chot hatch\u201d. Well, that\u2019s where we come in! Introducing the CorkSport Lowering Springs for 2021+ Mazda 3 Turbo<\/a>. We took what we learned from the naturally aspirated Mazda 3 and applied it to the slightly heftier turbo models. This resulted in a great new ride height and improved handling to push the GEN4 closer to a hot hatch, without ruining the daily driving comfort. Read on for full details and images of the great new look!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s start off with what everyone wants to know: ride height! With only one driveline & transmission option, we could really dial in the ride height for both turbo hatchback and sedan models. The CS lowering springs for the turbo models offer a similar ride height drop to the N\/A models. For the turbo hatchback, this means a ride height drop of approximately 1.5\u201d in the front and 1.8\u201d in the rear<\/strong>. For the slightly heavier turbo sedan, expect a drop of 1.5\u201d in the front and 1.9\u201d in the rear<\/strong>. While the sedan is a slightly larger drop in the rear than the hatchback, it still sits level and looks great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
