depending on your spring rate selection, be prepared for oversteer at the limit.

All thse people with lots of money to throw at their cars...

Its obsene! I think i need to find a sponser, so i am throwing this out there to anybody whos looking for some cheap publicity for their performance mx5 parts business...

One Green NB, good condition, spends lots of time as a mobile billboard on old cleveland road... I will consider all offers over $1850...

Good buy either way Butters... Still cant believe the difference it has made...

I upgraded from stock and old to SSâ€™s last week as well! Ride height looks almost factory at the recommended settings so no one will know you can corner like a loony (unless you put the stickers on the sill panel). Just had a fairly aggressive wheel alignment done and it has transformed the car. Now I have to wait until the 17th to see how much faster I am against the clock, if I am less than 2 seconds faster the finance department is going to kill me for spending too much money.

I told my 3 year old that she could have one of the 500 stickers that come with the kit when I had finished installing the shocks. For the next hour she stood next to me saying \"Daddy, have you finished now?\" Drove me absolutely nuts! I am glad that they include a ton of stickers because I have something to bribe her with. â€œGo get me a beer or no more Mr Shock Absorber Man for you!â€

I considered cutting the T symbol off the end of the badge style sticker and putting that on the back but it all seemed like too much hard work!

The Tein kit is not cheap but if you consider the cost of buying shocks, springs, bump stops, dust boots, top hats and stickers :lol:

separately against getting the kit with matched springs and damping etc then it is not bad.

i still believe my total car cost is less than yours

Ahh the joys of finance... Its like having a car thats not yours but you somehow still have to pay for everything... Which in fact leads me to the next comment...

...have a social life (or wife or girl friend) and you'll find loads of money you used to waste somewhere else...

These girlfriend things are expensive! (But still worth the money, much like my boooootifull mx5...)

Me thinks i might have to get myself 4 nice green christmas presents this year...
