I would like to know if Mazda 6 springs will fit on a Mazda 3. I actually may have a chance to pick up a set of MAZDASPEED 6 springs. I realize the spring rates are stiffer for a heavier car, but are the overall dimensions close? will the upper and lower perches work?

I am looking to try the same thing myself - installing MazdaSpeed 6 springs on a Mazda 3 sedan. I personally have not seen the MazdaSpeed 6 springs yet as I would like to compare them to the MazdaSpeed 3 stock springs.

Do you happen to know the difference in height or the spring rates for the MazdaSpeed 6 - I know its a little more stiffer but curious to see how much it will raise the regular 3. I am waiting for a friend to take the MazdaSpeed 6 springs off his car as he is upgrading to something else - so until then I guess its just gonna be a lot of guess work.

Thanks
