I just purchased a 2012 skyactive and i need help on a few things.. The dealer told me that everything was reconfigured for this car , so i was wondering do you guys think i could use the cs springs and will rx-8 18x8 wheels work??? thanks for the help guys

Congrats on the new 3! I'm thinking the springs should fit, but not 100% positive. And as long as Mazda kept the bolt pattern the same, which I'm almost certain they did, the RX8 wheels will fit without any issues...well except for a bit of loss in the MPG that is. :tongue:

Without pictures I say, it did not happen... :tongue:

The suspension should be carry over from the before, the only thing that was changed is the engines

Does anyone know if the Skyactiv GT model has the advanced keyless feature? Mazda's car builder page says it does but the specs PDF says it is only available on the 2.5 GT.

I sure hope so for 18k starting

Didn't Mazda redesign the rear suspension on this for a better ride? Or was that only on the Mazda6 SkyActive prototype they were demoing?

I am referring to the keyless start/advanced keyless entry features, not just the regular keyless entry.


Also, sorry if I hijacked this thread.:shuriken:

I thought I read somewhere the rear suspension components are completely different from the regular MZ3.

Can somebody with a 2012 post an up-skirt pic of the rear of their car so we may compare?

revs & mpg

I just purchased a 2012 skyactive ...

How many RPM does the new 2.0 L automatic turn at 65 mph?
(The brochure doesn't list gear ratios or final-drive ratio.)

At a steady 65 mph, how many MPG does it get ?

thanks,
Mike
