you would not void the warranty on the car as a whole. However, you should not expect the dealer to warranty your shocks, or other suspension parts.

is there somewhere that mazda states or anything about adding aftermarket accessories. becuase it would not be good if i installed springs, had an engine problem and they somehow find a way of blaming it on aftermarket spings

they wont. but then again, it depends who you go to. some dealerships arent mod friendly. but again, if your engine blows, there is no way it can be traced to your springs.

i have a full ehxuast, intake, coilovers, aftermarket wheels, etc etc, and i havent had any real problems, but i also do all my work myself, and i havent had any real problems with my car.

i have the mazdaspeed springs, and unfortunately MoT didn't install them; as a result, any warranty work to the suspension was denied by MoT. if you get them installed by the dealership it should be ok, but it will cost you an arm and a leg (~$400 for spring install + ~$350 for the springs themselves, which includes the rear camber kit)
