Q

 

why not just try a local dealer? i'd have a hard time believing that after shipping costs you'd make out better importing stock coils from the US to Scotland, but i suppose you'd know better than i would. so to answer your question on that level, i'd recommend Montgomery Mazda (www.onlinemazdaparts.com). i've been happy with their service for the 5 years i've owned my Rx-8.

on the other hand, i've heard nothing but good things about the BHR coil upgrades. that may be a better route. it's your choice.

 

u be surprised how much people are paying in places like say, Hong Kong. almost triple of quadruple of what we pay + shipping from Japan.

 

Put it this way, it was cheaper for me to ship 8x D585 coils over, plus connectors to make a harness, and a set of new spark plugs, plus shipping and import taxes, than it was to buy a set of 4 x OEM coils here.

Anyway, I used to get them from RotaryArt, they're fairly cheap over here, comparatively.

 

For a Uk supplier try mazdarotaryparts.com
Best off getting 4 since 1 has failed the rest won't be far behind, get some new sparkplug leads as well.

I second mazmart, great service and oem from there came to around 238$CDN whereas the dealership was charging 100$ per coil.
