cool, I use tanabe Sway bars
and I use the Megan coilovers
a lot better than just the Mazdaspeed shocks&springs

And there is a plus if you have the under braces and strut bars

Nik: I fail to see how any other project (aside from torbo ) could be more important than having rpf1's at that price...

Did you mean the MS wing? or just MS rear bumper lip?
Dont waste your money on just lowering springs, save a bit more $ and get a set of coilovers
a set of Megan coilovers $700 shipped
coz it cost the same to install a set of coilovers and a set of lowering springs.....

and the coilovers are a lot better performance
+ you can adjust the height you want also soft and stiff

haha thanks phillip, but don't really plan on tracking my car, can't afford it.

but i see where you're going with this, it'll look like yours, just VR! haha. jk..

but anyways, yeaah, my friend was trying to tell me i should just got straight to coilovers though, esp, since megan are faitly cheap, but i'd do that instead if i was gonna replace my stock shcoks, dont think im gonna do that.

my little ones right now are
paint calipers, AF SS, paint/fit MS rear lip/diffuser/springs

my major ones are gonna be...
wheels+tires, perhaps coilovers, mid pipe, and re-amemiya front lip...

but cash is tight right now, so just kinda going with whatever becoems available first.
