My review of Riceland coilovers

Assemblig shocks
I'm putting the NB shocks and NB tophats on my NA.
How do you compress the two bushings to get the tophat on the shock? The thread isn't long enough. Compressing the springs doesn't help. Some on Miatanet have suggested trimming the upper rubber bushing in half to shorten it, but I'd rather not do that.
If I do trim the upper rubber bushing in half, does the cut side go down?
Thanks for helping a coilover newbie.

That's mad funny cause you do know all coilover bounce and technically ride "poorly" coilovers are meant for track use where roads are near perfect and smooth. Also i drive a miata slammed on racelands, it bounced just as bad as Tein SS on an evo that I just drove a couple days ago
shut the **** up.

Oh hey, this thread is 3 years old so I'm going to reply to one of the first comments of a thread--with 20 pages worth of discussion--with some stupid drivel because I haven't a ******* clue in the world.
I've slacked with quality control on this site, and James didn't make the cut. Sorry, admin has no friends.
