@SBGarage: Would you please send me a set of the factory shocks and struts to my house? If you take new off and replace with better quality I would be very happy to just use your non-used parts! Shoot, anyone for that matter! Just let me know and I will PM you the address where it can be shipped to.

We just pulled off a set of ND miata suspension with 500 miles on them. Sport package, bilstein stock shocks. They're over damped and under sprung with a narrow window for springs... we've got piles of stock shocks at the shop. No RX8 currently but if we have any come in I'll let you know.

So I just replaced my front shocks the other day. Now I am no mechanic but it took me about four hours, which is twice what it 'should' take, I guess. I cannot say I am thrilled with what I have but they seem to ride a ton better. Now I have to do the back! Grrr. That should prove to be a fun job. If you were only here and say... my best buddy!
