	Mazdaspeed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mazdaspeed is Mazda's in-house race and street car tuning arm and is highly involved in both amateur and professional motorsports.
		Mazdaspeed began in 1967 as "Mazda Sports Corner", a tuning and racing operation run by Takayoshi Ohashi, who also ran Mazda's Tokyo distributor.
		After the FIA effectively outlawed the Wankel engine the next year, the Mazdaspeed team turned away from professional racing and focused instead on enabling third-party competition of Mazda vehicles.

	Test Drive: MazdaSpeed MX-5
		Interestingly enough, the North American MazdaSpeed MX-5 has no Miata badges on it, and the regular Miata makes no reference to the MX-5 label that is applied to the Miata in Europe (in Asia, the car is known simple as the Roadster).
		The red seats and silver gauges are unique to the MazdaSpeed model; most noticeable is the tachometer with a 6,500 rpm redline, down from 7,000 rpm in the normal Miata.
		It appears MazdaSpeed has succeeded in making a faster, better-handling Miata without destroying the outstanding balance and fun-to-drive qualities that have made the Miata such a success over the years, and also without resorting to silly boy-racer fluff.

	Mazdaspeed 6 - Previews - Car and DriverJanuary 2006
		What we know: The Mazdaspeed 6 that went on sale here in November is fast, it’s glued down, it’s well developed, and it looks like a freeway assassin.
		In case you have forgotten the brief on this car, the Mazdaspeed 6 comes only in sedan form, with a base price of $28,555 and a six-speed stick.
		A steady, deliberate surge rather than a sudden whoosh means the Mazdaspeed can feel a little lazy with the pedal buried.

		Keeping the MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata cool as its turbocharged engine blazes are two additional oil cooler plate pieces, allowing the oil more time to cool before it recycles through the engine.
		MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata also receives a quicker steering ratio since the rack stroke was reduced more than 7mm from Miata’s.
		MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata is set to go on sale in select North American markets in spring 2004.

	Inside Line: First Drive: 2006 Mazda Mazdaspeed 6 - Adult Fun for the Over-Evo Crowd (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Mazdaspeed, the Japanese automaker's performance arm, had already worked over the small Protegé; sedan and Miata MX-5 roadster.
		Unlike the all-wheel-drive Evo and Subaru WRX STi, the turbocharged Mazdaspeed 6 doesn't announce itself with large spoilers and aggressive hood scoops.
		Keeping the Mazdaspeed brand's performance promise, overall rigidity has been improved by 50 percent over the naturally aspirated 6 with upgrades including additional steel in the front and rear bumper areas, and extra reinforcement at the suspension mounting points.

	Moe's Miata: 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata Test Drive
		The Mazdaspeed is only available in two colors, Velocity Red and Titanium Gray Metallic; they had both colors on display.
		The car also comes with Mazdaspeed scuff plates on the door sills (a very nice touch), metal pedals with the Mazdaspeed logo (another nice touch), silver faced gauges, silver colored radio facia, door handles and vent rings, and a body-colored rear view mirror.
		The car seemed a little more floaty; it may be because of the extra weight of the Mazdaspeed or possibly it is because of my rollbar, but the car just seemed different than mine.

	2007 Mazdaspeed 3 - Sport Compact Car Magazine
		Mazdaspeed's North American operation has only three full-time employees, with another dozen or so supporting program engineers in Japan.
		I'm learning all this from Tod Kaneko, the US manager of Mazdaspeed, as we drive up to Monterey to meet up the five other Mazda folks who have set aside this weekend for the final shakedown of the Mazdaspeed3.
		The other member of the team is Takahiro "Koby Jr." Kobyakawa, one of the original Mazdaspeed engineers from Japan and the son of Mazda legend Takaharu "Koby" Kobyakawa - the lead engineer on the FD RX-7 and Le Mans-winning 787B race car.

		MAZDASPEED is the company’s high performance brand, committed to the need for speed and personalization through three separate but related, channels: one which creates a range of aftermarket performance-boosting accessories, one which develops high-performance road cars, and one which promotes Mazda Motorsports activities around the world.
		MAZDASPEED was originally established in 1967 under the team name “Mazda Sports Corner” at Mazda Auto Tokyo, Japan’s largest Mazda dealer.
		MAZDASPEED ’s passion for motorsport goes even further, extending to its support of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in Monterey, Calif.

	Mazda3 Designed With Mazdaspeed in Mind
		Also predetermined was the choice of the 5-door, rather than the sedan or wagon, to be the sole Mazda3 variant to wear the Mazdaspeed moniker, a result of customer clamor during the heyday of its Mazdaspeed Protege predecessor, offered only as a 4-door sedan.
		“Because we knew we were going in with a Mazdaspeed up front (during the development of the current Mazda3), we built the 5-door with enough structural rigidity to be able to handle (a turbocharged engine),” he adds.
		The Mazdaspeed3 is known as the Mazda3 MPS (for Mazda Performance Series) in Europe and Mazdaspeed Axela in Japan.

	2006 Mazda Mazdaspeed 6 - Review & Road Test - Automobile Magazine
		Fortunately, the Mazdaspeed 6 is up to long-distance highway cruising, which not every sport sedan can claim.
		The Mazdaspeed 6's engine also has the right kind of personality for the highway, as it's supernaturally smooth with an elastic range of power.
		This turbocharged and intercooled version of Mazda's MZR 2.3-liter four is stout enough to deliver 274 hp, thanks to a new forged crankshaft and connecting rods as well as the MZR's customary two-piece block.

		Lastly, despite its lightweight racing parts the MazdaSpeed is 135 kg (297 lb) heavier than the base Proteg, mostly due to the aerodynamic ground effects and audio equipment.
		The MazdaSpeed idea is nothing new, but the approach Mazda has taken is rare for a major manufacturer.
		Harnessing the best of the aftermarket in one car has produced a significant player in the sport compact segment, commanding respect from competitors and arming Mazda loyalists with a few bragging rights of their own.

	A Mightier Miata - Dec. 29, 2003
		By early 2005, performance junkies can expect a turbocharged Mazdaspeed 3 sports compact that should pump out at least 200 horsepower (or up to 240, if Mazda decides to offer an all-wheel-drive version).
		The hotted-up 3 should be followed by Mazdaspeed's take on the mid-size 6.
		Begun as a side project of a Tokyo Mazda dealer in the '70s, Mazdaspeed evolved into the automaker's successful racing operation in the'80s, then into performance parts and vehicles.
