zoom2zoom 10-22-2008 04:30 PM

lol, yeah, because there is only ONE bilstein shock ever put under a Miata!! Come on guy, if you want what you need, you need to be more specific!!

superman with heat 10-22-2008 08:29 PM

how specific can i be....its simple. This way i have more options

zoom2zoom 10-22-2008 09:21 PM

you are an idiot, at least 4 different models came with Bilstein shocks from the factory, WHICH ONES DO YOU NEED????

superman with heat 10-22-2008 09:34 PM

gamman 10-22-2008 09:53 PM

finally, we are getting somewhere. I was thinking of swapping out the Sport suspension from my 90 that came out of a 2002 with 40k miles. had it on for about 800 miles. make an offer I can't refuse.

superman with heat 10-23-2008 10:39 AM

$200...simply because replacements are almost $400 brand new...

Link to where they're $400 new? (list is $806)

zoom2zoom 10-23-2008 02:45 PM

This would be a complete NB Sport setup, not just the shocks, and Tokico springs if desired.

superman with heat 10-23-2008 09:37 PM

i just need the shocks...i have GCs

i didnt mean replacement oem shocks...i wouldnt pay that much for oem..i meant to replace your shocks with bilsteins

Spec Miata spec's are garbage btw.

Actually, isn't the SM bilstein an off the shelf HD?

superman with heat 10-24-2008 12:33 PM

so you're saying 700lbs F 375lbs R are garbage for a street driven car? wow...didnt think that was garbage....of course im not planning on running spring rates that high since it would kill me DD in Los Angeles..

zoom2zoom 10-24-2008 01:52 PM

Shouldn't you match the spring and shock rates?

superman with heat 10-24-2008 02:51 PM

i need to buy new front springs first in order to match but for now it will do since i wont be installing them till i get every component
