OEM Mazda Brake pads

2015 sedan. I did my brakes last spring. I went with OEM as I found them cheaper than any aftermarket I could find near me and as far as I knew I still had OEM on my car and had lasted me a long time. Zero issues since having them installed, I’m happy.

Pros: zero issues, long lasting
Vehicle: Mazda 3

STOPTECH Brake pads

Rating 5.0

I switched from oem to EBC slotted rotors and StopTech "Street" pads about 20k miles ago. I won't be switching back. Firmer and more immediate initial bite, more consistent brake feel, and no brake fade even when carving up the canyon. This with good lifespan for the pads, zero noise, and low dust. I do have to be mindful when braking in traffic though, as the pads took about ten feet off of my 60-0 stopping distance and the performance tires a few more, and I don't want to end up wearing the vehicle behind me. I have a '16 sedan and only changed the front brakes out.

Pros: firmer bite, consistent feel, no fade
Cons: shorter stopping distance

KONI Shock absorbers

Rating 5.0

Took her out on the HWY for an extended drive thrashing. Its a totally diff car now! Has great road feel while cruising but much more solid handling and tracking at higher speeds that before would get sloppy and concerning. even at almost triple digits it was poised and confidence inspiring. Also comfortable! Can't stress this enough they wont ruin the ride like normal stiffer shocks. The Koni SA's really polish the Miata's suspension to give a great ride and expand the performance envelope! Just what the Miata needs to make it a great car. I am very happy with them.

Pros: Great road feel, solid handling, comfortable

Ok had a chance to get a better feel of the shocks. Took it out in a curvy road nearby. The funny thing is how progressive they feel in how they stiffen up. most of the time they are a light soft shock but as you put more wheel input and the g's come up they firm a lot and support the suspension. It feels like the sway bars got bigger! But when you turn the wheel back to neutral it instantly goes back to comfort mode. Back to soaking up bumps and smoothing out the ride. Magic! Totally love them.

Pros: Progressive stiffening, comfort mode, soaks bumps

KONI Shock absorbers

Amazing shocks! Spent the weekend putting them on. Mines a 96. 114k miles the original shocks were not completely dead but almost no rebound. Cant wait to take them on the HWY. Smooth on the street and firm in the twisties!

Pros: Smooth on street, firm in twisties

Wix Oil filter

I would highly recommend Rock auto, there website is simple old school but they are no bs auto parts store and will only show what does fit. They often show the real part your buying (say for tie rod), I've bought thousands of $ of brakes and suspension components over the last 20 yrs and always correct, they often sell OEM parts or the direct suppliers version of OEM which is unique. It will take some time for most of the aftermarket parts for the CX50 but at this point WIX or OEM Mazda are going to be your best bet for oil filters

Pros: reliable parts, correct fitment

NGK Spark plug

I've used Autolite plugs in my stock 2011 for 6 years. I wanted to try NGK's so I recently installed a set of Ruthenium NGK plugs. I haven't noticed any difference between the two brands.

Pros: no noticeable difference
Vehicle: Mazda
