Re: some questions
I picked up my HP's (for the mx-3) and eibach's at contemporary motorsports (was in the same building as tnt honda).. I think they moved, but worth while to give them a call. The upper strut mounts I got from mazda as well as the dust boots and bump stops. IIRC the hole in the upper strut mount needs to be drilled/bored out to fit the zx2 struts.. I could be wrong.
This will be the best upgrade most people will ever do. Enjoy it!
