Skyactiv 3 Hatch on Prokits?

[dambay]

Hey folks,
I'm strongly considering picking up a set of Prokits for my Skyactiv hatch, but I've read a couple of thread that indicate that the drop might not be even. One person installed BC coilovers, and at equal settings, the front sat higher than the back. Others have said the front is slightly higher than the back on stock suspension as well. I'm just wondering if anyone has a Skyactiv 3 lowered on Prokits, how can comment on whether the drop is even front to back or not. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Just for reference. You can wait for someone to chime in who is using them.

Anyone who can comment on this? I'm hoping to pick up some springs from nextmod before their deal ends on the 29th.

What kind of drop are you looking for? The GX hatch is probably your best frame of reference; so far I have tried racing beat and road magnet springs.

Just for your informastin, i went into my dealership (guelph city mazda) and asked about changing the suspention and maybe installing a catback and SRI. They told me to wait for a wgilw since the skyactiv is mazdas holy grail right now. hey told me that if theres anythiong wrong with a skyactiv product, they need to call up mazda japan and tell them about it.

In short, i was advised to keep it stock for now.

I was looking into the same thing and I came across a thread on a U.S. mazda3 forum where a guy posted photos of his lowered Skyactiv HB where the drop was uneven. Due to the lighter engine his rear was lower than his front. Needless to say it looked whack.
