Anyway, finally got them installed, along with the MS sway bars. I had been worried about the effect on ride quality.

Funny thing happened. I went to Rev-It-Up and test drove the MS Miata, and after that just knew I could deal with a little harsher ride. Also rode with a friend in a Mazda 3, the friend driving it like a maniac. With the excessive body roll, I thought springs would be great.

I was going to wait another week for the suspension guy at cybernationmotorsports.com to come back from vacation, but then found another place and got them to do it for the same price.

So in they are, and now I don't know how I ever went without. Springs still need to settle a bit.

Will take pics in a few months when I get new rims.

Follow up?
 
Hmm.. do you have a follow up?

I know you said you don't know how you lived without it.. Does the body not roll anymore? Also, is it bumpy on the freeway? I once found a magical suspension setup, but it involved adjustable suspension..

fully adjustable struts and spring rate.. However, I know that there are decent progressive springs out there that provide a manageable ride height, with absolutely optimum ride quality and sportiness.

I will definitely do a review on this VTP Sustech complete suspension combo that I'm talking about soon. But for now, let me know how the GF210 is... I am debating changing my mind and installing the VTP Sustech suspension because I remember driving the curviest roads in Honolulu hawaii with ease and lots of lots of FUN! Yup at Tantalus, Honolulu hawaii's up hill / down hill amazing road with relatively safe areas to execute some amazing maneuvers.

Take care and Happy 2012!
