I guess I have two questions.
The first I could get from my dealer, but they are a long drive (and I don't want to spend an hour on the phone with a ding-dong), so, is the MazdaSpeed Spring and shock kit available yet? I've seen peeps talking about the sway bars and strut braces, but not the spring and shock kit. It's on the MazdaSpeed-Japan webpage, but I'm not real good with Japanese!

The second, if you have it, how do you like it?
I drive alot of highway miles and don't want to ruin the ride. How much stiffer are the springs?
I think just a little lower and a little stiffer would make the handling PERRRRRRRRRFECTO for a street car.

 

Look at a few of the Mazda Dealship/vendors in the Vendors catagory. They have all the MS parts that you are looking for, at probably better prices than your local dealer.

 

So how about question 2?
Does anyone have it installed?

 

Go to www.rosenthalmazda.com for the cheapest price.
I did the install a couple of days ago and the ride is alittle stiffer but not too much. Just enough to where you notice it.
The drop is around 0.8 inches.
There's several members that have the MS springs/shocks, do a search for mazdaspeed springs.
Posted a few pictures here.

 

Thanks Adrain.
Keep me posted on how you like them. Did you do the shocks as well as the springs?
Say Hi to my old friend, Austin. We lived in La Grange and Brenham in the eighty's. We loved Austin. I built a steel framed house for a couple out in Bear Creek Estates on the west side of town. I took my oldest daughter to see it back in '00 when I took her out to Baylor U. She's in med school now and her younger sister is starting at Fla. Atlantic this fall. I don't know why I haven't had the money to play with my avatar................

 

Yes, I did the springs and shocks.
Here's a much more detailed thread on the springs / shocks by another member. Click here.
Austin has been getting very populated, I actually live on the outskirts (Pflugerville).

 

Thanks again, Adrian. That was a good thread, cortc did a great job explaining things to the non tech types.
I'm a Mazda vendor, so I'll email my purchasing agent for my discount and get the stuff ordered in a couple of weeks. I'm waiting right now on payment from Mazda on a couple of orders they have with me.
