just wondered are parts in general hard to come by or are they readily avalible with the fd3 being a big hit are the fc3 and fd3 interchangable etc....

FC parts are getting slowly harder to find as people break more of them. Mazda still stock some parts and there are some after market providers covering things like brakes, and what have you.
Some parts for the engine builds are the same, but not everything, but those parts tend to be more readily available.
Body parts/panels are the hardest to find, followed by interior trim. Roofs are available from Mazda (but they aren\'t very good), or upgraded cloth roofs from the US.
Apart from that - it\'s typical of any 20 year old car !
depends what you after, parts are not that hard to find, just timing lol and someitmes price :)
