I bought stock Mazda brakes for both front and rear. How come it doesn’t come with the brake accessories?

Or is it sold separately?

No, brake pads only come with brake pads, that's the package. The rest are with the car.

Pad clips and shims? These was not included in the original Mazda brake pads when I bought from a stockiest.
Use back the old shims and clips. Last time from oem, also like this. Certain oem brand in order to be price competitive do not come with these.

Anyone tried to tune your Mazda 3 1.5A before? How is it and is there great difference?
Better pick up, not a lot, but the engine feels more responsive.

Power increased but it's still a 1.5NA, good for daily spirited drive. Will it become better... yes but not exponentially. It feels like a true 1.5 after it's Stage 1 tuned.

FC better as well but honestly, if you're tuning for FC, save the money.

This Mazda 3 1.5A the pick up is really bad. Need to press the accelerator pedal so hard for the car to pick up. Mine also Mazda 3
