My DFV's turned out to have a fault on one of the rears and it's cheaper to pay to have it repaired than it is to ship the unit back to the US.
The positive side is they can be revalved for local conditions at rebuild time.
Just a heads up, The service from Steve Cramer is AMAZING. I had to put off sending them down for a number of reasons (my reasons not his) and he turned them around in 5 working days - sent back by registered post overnight. They go in tomorrow so I can FINALLY start tweaking for the next track day.
BIG THANKS to Charlie Brown for his help during this time too..... I owe you a beer

If you're thinking about coilovers, no doubt the Ohlins live up to their (well deserved) international reputation. Steve at Steve Cramer Products knows his stuff and is the penultimate professional, can't recommend him unough. Wakefield, here I come...............

Umm, not trying to be pedantic here Guy, but do you mean what you said, or do you mean what you meant to say?


I never met a horsepower I didn't like (thanks bwob)

Spoke to Steve Cramer today, The NA/NB version (part#MAS MI20) is $2,895 plus shipping ($50 I think). Can't tell you how they compare but Goodwin Racing says the Ohlins are the bee's knees across the entire Miata/MX5 range

I'm considering these for my NB as well. The price is high - but I'm down with the 'buy once, buy right' idea.
Am I correct that the NB rates are 8kgf/mm 6kgf/mm (front rear)?
