TURNING OUR $100 MAZDASPEED3 INTO A TRACK CAR!

Its been almost two years since our 1000whp Mazdaspeed 3, which was a huge success for us in terms of collecting data, and being able to really hone in on what parts are needed to make a successful drag car for the Mazda platform.
In this build, we decided to take a different approach. Our 2009 Mazdaspeed 3 was acquired back in April of 2023, and quite frankly, we had NO IDEA what we wanted to do with it. As some time passed, we decided it would be smart for us to build a more attainable car with the parts that we sell the most in, using the companies we trust in our day to day jobs.
With the help of some amazing companies, we've compiled the best parts on the market to complete this project as not only a daily driver, but a track car.

Just found this...looking forward to watching the whole build 😎

[@DamondMotorsports]

Excited to see what you guys do with this build!

[@NotJustALineCook]

I have a 07 and it’s falling apart. Excited for this. Subbed!

[@graveyardperformance]

@@NotJustALineCook happy to help you get it back to where you want it!

[@NotJustALineCook]

@@graveyardperformance may just take you up on that if I can find a way to get it to UT! I’ll start saving my shekels!

[@eriknorton3734]

Absolutely love the in-depth videos on Gen 1 Speed 3's seeing as literally no one is making these anymore.
I'm sure you're getting to it, but I would love to see an in-depth video about tuning solutions for big turbo, catless, EGR deleted, butterfly valve deleted, resonatorless & mufflerless previously tuned cars via the Cobb access port v3.
Green speed has kind of killed us. Personally, I am nearly dialed in on my 93 maps. I didn't even get past my E30 base map. Would love to know if you had any solutions or work arounds!

[@pokemon_boi]

I was planning to fmic soon and I’m so glad I didn’t yet! I’m actually excited to see the under route for the cooling!

[@jesusservin-ir4ox]

Are you guys going to be installing that on a stock block? I didn’t see any upgraded pistons or rods?

[@graveyardperformance]

We will go over that info in our next video releasing in about an hour and a half!

[@vinnyc7738]

I loved my speed3 and miss it so much. Looking forward to watching this build!

[@oscargarfia1078]

I’ve been waiting for something like this. Glad you went with a gen 1

[@popomomo12]

[@glennstagg3559]

[@ecruemb]

[@Meanmachine.ms3]

I enjoyed watching this . I can’t wait to see it done , and excited to see what color you guys are gonna do to the exterior. 💙

[@Luck2Skill]

Can't wait to see this! Super excited and to see what all the parts can do!

[@graveyardperformance]

Should be an efficient setup and perfect for what we want to do!

[@kodehh3322]

Definitely excited for this series

[@graveyardperformance]

We are too 😈

[@khanwinslow5935]

I am definitely keen to get some parts for mine through you guys in the future for my 2008 mazdaspeed 3

[@grape00jellly]

This is sick 🔥🔥
Any plans on providing a rear BBK with the cable brake? No one else seems to have one readily available anymore 😤

[@graveyardperformance]

It’s only gonna get better from here 🫣

[@zakura70jr]

Honestly id love for bnr or corksport to make a turbine housing with the same ewg design but use v band inlet and outlet that would be killer and a popular universal design also

[@kevinwhitehead1878]

What are the specs on those rims and tires? Were the fenders required to be rolled or even pulled? I have RX8 wheels but want to know what I can run as far as specs and not have to do silly things like stretch tires or pull fenders. Im a function over looks guy. Thanks!

[@JoseGonzalez-qs5xv]

Love you guys! Love the shop!

[@graveyardperformance]

Appreciate it! Lots more coming 🫶🏽🫶🏽

[@baileyjohnson3898]

Wish you guys had a dealer in Aus some of the only people still active in the mps/Mazda speed community

[@graveyardperformance]

We ship worldwide 💪🏽💪🏽

[@jap1784]

Cant wait to see the finish product

[@Unnaturalmethod]

Ohhhh I am making a list of these nice parts ❤

[@03max6spd]

[@graveyardperformance]

[@03max6spd]

@@graveyardperformance thank you!

[@ColtonNielsen-g8s]

Best place to buy parts hands down. You guys hooked me up with my turbo back exhaust and oil pickup thank you so much!

[@luisquiroga8996]

What are the wheel specs? Thanks

[@agriculturesciencewithmrja3230]

This is exciting!

[@graveyardperformance]

You’re tellin us 😋

[@IamMrFitz]

Great list of parts, and can't wait to see the progress!
Love the fix for exhaust manifold, it is giant pain in the ass to get that last bolt for the turbo on!

[@graveyardperformance]

I know! It’s something we should’ve done long ago 😂

[@Kelford-Cams]

Awesome video team, looking forward to seeing more in the future 😊

[@NoHairRedBeard]

I love this❤

[@dnnybrr3]

Got new serie

[@davehoffman515]

How was this a $100 car?!

[@graveyardperformance]

Was a customer car we acquired for $100 as it needed an engine

[@popomomo12]

I just got a speed 6 for free. Needed an engine also. I've ordered some things from graveyard and appreciate the fast shipping

[@davidknelsen6257]

So empty here 😂

[@graveyardperformance]

We goofed on launch time but it’s okay 😂

[@thom97ga]

It’s gonna be sick!!!
