Awesome! I was checking these out too.

Remember to post pics, lots of pics.

Did they provide you any details on them. Spring rates, etc?

Maybe there not the same part?

The person I got the info from said the catalog provided very little details regarding the coilovrs.

Fron SR's site: "Fully adjustable ride height and double adjustable shocks with all needed springs and hardware for all four corners."

Do these coilovers truly have double adjustable damping? Separate adjustments for compression and rebound? Hard for me to believe it for that price. And what is with SR trying to sell camber plates for the RX-8 since they only will adjust camber on strut equipped cars? Not trying to bash SR, but how about some truth in advertising?

i'm highly skeptical that SR can get mazdaspeed coilovers when their not even in Mazda's own computer system yet...

"These RX-8 coil over suspension kits are made to our specs for the newest Mazda RX-8."


How could SR get Mazda(speed) to make something 'to our specs'? I've seen a ton of kit on ebay saying 'Mazdaspeed'. It's just a word, it doesn't mean THE Mazdaspeed scantioned by MAZDA.

Cross check - call any Mazda dealer that is also a certified (real) Mazdaspeed dealer too, and ask about getting these. If they have them, great... if not..you've been told a fib

These are in the official US Mazdaspeed catalog. But as many have said before, no one (including the catalog) has a part number for this part. The availability of the genuine Mazdaspeed coilover is still TBD.
