my first point about sums this thread up, they initially made 3 piece seals then figured out that they were less than perfect and then switched to 2 piece seals. most aftermarket sources have made 2 piece seals for a while now.

just because some smaller sources don't have millions to throw into R+D doesn't make them untouchable in the R+D department. and a few cases of RA seal failures compared to tens to hundreds of thousands of stock seal failures is incomparable in more ways than one but the main point was simple: alternate choices for seals do not make them any less reliable than some that mazda spent a pretty penny to gold plate...

Well that statement is pretty much flawed in itself, because of the fact that the RA seals have been out for what 2 years? and the mazda seals? 20? so when the RA seals come arround and sell as many sets then that comparison can be made.. I am not dissing nor am I saying the RA seals are junk, but you are arguing because a new product has less failures makes it better.
Mazda has sold.. lets say 500,000 seal sets
RA has sold what lets say 500 sets (maybe more but for easy math's sake)
Now lets say 10 sets of the RA seals have failed.
so 10/500 = 2% failure rate;
now lets say that 100,000 failed of stock mazda
so 30,000/500,000 = 6% failure rate; (more morons are running stock than RA and abuse the stock so that means would make up for the difference)

So it is proven the more number of things made the more that are bound to fail.

all the info is there you pretty much have to be building a Mazda Race Car or you have to be Currently racing one, you simply have to prove it.

Race twice a year (either drag/autox)
Pay for a SCCA membership (60 bucks)

Gotta prove you dragged thru pictures/or vids/timeslips.

You can save 60 bucks on your first order so the scca thing is no big deal.
