Got my Mazdaspeed Shocks and Springs installed today, just slightly lowered, by about 15mm, the mechanic thinks it will drop a bit more after a few weeks. Very happy with it so far. Can feel it is firmer than stock, the ride is not harsh or bumpy at all, and now when cornering hard, the grin is back.

Need to get new tires with more grip...

 

pics!!???

 

15mm????? Can drop a bit more????

Height adjustable MazdaSpeed shock???????


I learn something new every day

 

don't get too carried away taka. new springs tend to settle in and it will be lower than when straight off the hoist.

the rx-8 mazdaspeed II has adjustable spring platforms from the factory. I found a set on .jp yahoo actions once and the bidding for the second-hand set was over 200,000 yen.

 

I thought the car lower by 20mm....?

The Jap Mag lies again...

 

I reckon once it is settled it might end up being 20mm drop. Will try to do a side-by-side compare with another car and take some pics later.
