This is the only one I could find but I don't think it's an accessory in Canada. I may be wrong though. Your best bet would be to ask Joe.

Edit: No wait, mazdaspeed3 doesn't mean mazdaspeed!

Let me try again.

it looks like MoT sells it. Read MS Front struts 2.0/2.3 only.


:)

Those are for the front struts(aka :shocks) themselves and not the strut tower bar..

The one from corksport is aftermarket and NOT OEM like the one JPAV8S4U has in his car..

One last attempt. I don't like the note I left in this thread. I went on mazdausa.com and found one on an rx-8. This is the front bar.

and this is the rear bar.

And also page 8 (bottom, middle) of this link

This has to be the one because it is from the mazdaspeed catalogue and it even says "strut tower bars" on it!



Edit 4/4/08: After searching for practically TWO days for this thing (with breaks here and there), I still am not finding one on a 3. :bang For once, I even went on google and searched through a pages and pages and PAGES of links, browsed through countless 3s on cardomain and looked through a bunch of other sites as well. (Maybe I am not looking properly.) :whoa After all that looking, I found one more guy with a 3 that has this bar, but I didn't locate any pictures of it. (I only found pictures of the outside of his car, and none of the engine bay.:bang) As said above, your best option would be to go to a meet or ask JP to take pictures and put them up.

(By the way, I am STILL trying to find a picture of one, and I will update if I ever find one. Me not knowing what it looks like on a 3 doesn't help either!:rant:blush)

RE-Edit 4/4/08:
I don't know if it's just me, but many pictures from old threads tend not to work at times and then work at times. I just RE-visted a bunch of threads on this board in case I missed something (even though I checked and RE-checked them 50 trillion times), and look what I found! It's not on a 3, but look how pretty it is!:hawt

Carbon weave on Mazdaspeed strut bar

As for whether MoT has it,

Some Mazdaspeed stuff would be very nice for example the front upper strut bar which we can\'t get over here.
