Can a Mazda 3 sedan be modified?
I’m looking for a hobby vehicle to work on with my teenage daughter. I want something safe that can easily take modifications. Can a Mazda 3 sedan be modified?

That sounds like a fun project! Yes, a Mazda 3 sedan can be modified with a variety of additions and tuning.
Turbo engines, mapping, intake and exhaust, and headwork are the most common modifications to a Mazda 3 sedan. To
modify a vehicle
takes patience and commitment—we admire you! If you and your daughter want to start with mods that require basic mechanical skills, here are some projects you may wish to pursue:
- Suspension upgrade
- Swapping the flywheel
- Remapping
- Adding a sports exhaust
- Remap
After that, you could look at adding a high-flow fuel injector and fuel pump upgrades. Headwork is a great next step, too.
Mazdas are generally fast and sporty, and they rank highly on a variety of safety tests. There are no Mazdas on the list of
worst cars for teenage drivers
. It sounds like a Mazda 3 could be a great car for you two to work on together, especially if you plan to give her the vehicle. If you need
