So I just picked up a 2006 Mazda3S manual with 119k miles. It made the 150 mile drive home with no issues. I noticed a slight ping when accelerating, assuming plugs or crap gas, but I plan on doing new fluids and plugs. Rear suspension is noisy and a little leaky from the struts, what is the recommended strut from the hive? I considered new suspension all around and maybe lowering it a tad, is there a good budget set up? Excited to get this car 100%.
