      not entierly true

      the more parts are bought . seeing that theres an interest in the part .it forces the manufacturer to fabricate more in order to accomodate the demand.....hence more parts

        assuming there's enough of a demand to warrent producing those parts.. if you have 20 parts on a shelf and it takes them 3 or 4 years to clear your stock of them they aren't going to refab them... which is typical for a bf part as there's only 3 kinds of people that modify BF chassis cars... GTX owners, GT owners, and people that try to build those two cars out of the inferior counterparts... i'm not trying to say this wont happen... i'm just saying I know what the shelf life of a BF chassis part is like, and i know that aftermarket support isn't going to regain any life on a 20+ year old car.

          Hints why corksport quit selling BH **** awhile ago
          I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

            exactly... sadly, the BH chassis is not a popular one... i kinda like it... i've thought about searching for a 95 es 5speed many times for a new daily.

              Can't agree more here. The main reason why anything is offered at all performance wise for the 323's is because of the Miata sharing the same motors.

              Miatas have popularity within the road race and especially the AutoX community.
              When they make parts for them, we, luckily get them too.

              Lets not forget that the 323 was never intended as a sports car. Sure they made a few HOT variants for rally duty, but it's a drop in the bucket compared to the number of RX-7s, Miatas, Evos, WRX's, Supras, and Honduhs made. Which is why the import market is currently focused on developing and selling parts to those crowds. More millions to be made.

              For a laugh... Click on the "See more applications" button below the "fits" line.
              And you'll see what I mean. That spoiler is a universal fit POS that can be bolted to whatever surface you care to drill 4 holes into.

                  BF intercooler kits...Not to my knowledge.

                  I was going to suggest adapting a ebay one from RB performance before I looked at your Signature.

                    nope.. no fmic kits... corksport has a stock location upgrade... thats it.. other than that it's all custom work.

                        you have to look at it like this. in a couple of years these cars will be like the dinosaurs xxxx.
                        this is why creative performances and many company's are hesitant to invest money and time developing new parts for bg or bf. funny considering the fastest fwd mazda4cyl is a bg. most performance companies are looking more at the new Mazda's on the market not these old chassis.

                          yeah exactly... the 89 year is now 20 years old... as most of them were actually manufactured in 88... which do you see more of driving around... mazda3's or bf chassis 323's?

                              Shut up Larry, no one asked you. Was yours really a kit or more of a custom job?
