When the H&R settle it's pretty much perfect IMO.



With my slightly smaller wheels it's not going to tuck, plus a spacer to flush it out. It's going to have a nice agressive stance, I just have to figure out how big of a spacer to use so I don't rub. Also, the problem with that red car is -2.1* camber in the rear, once he gets that straightened out the rear will sit nice and with more neg camber in the front (which these cars need) the front gets slightly lower. In the end it comes out flush all around.

I would be very impressed if bonehead could pull that off. When do you plan on getting them done? I'm very interested in seeing the outcome.

Hmm, I'll consider it, would certainly be good for my upcoming rice mods. You want the rear too? Let me check if I have the bushings on it or not.

SPEC Miata doesn't use a rear sway, I had mine disconnected for a day and I liked it more with the rear on.

I have brackets and bushings with the front stocker, I'll see what they are going for and let you know.

Not just spec miatas run without a rear swaybar. If you have proper springs and or coilovers, with the right front bar..theres no need for a rear sway.

I dont need the endlinks or bushings. They are useless. $60, for just the bar. Im getting fully adjustable endlinks

Who is installing the springs? I can do that in a few hours now. We can also tackle the brakes and clutch.
