more important is how are those dampers. springs are not the problem. you can always get new springs from other places. theres more than just eibach ers. theres also afco, hypercoil, and dave turner springs. as long as its a universal 2.5 id race spring in the right length and spring rate it will be fine. oh and make sure the coilover sleeves are good quality cuz if the sleeve is junk its part of the strut body isnt it?. more companies should make fully adjustable coilovers for us dang it!! they sure look like they can slam a mx3 with no kit, thats for sure. :2thumbsup:

just so you guys dont get too out of hand. i phoned the company and they told me that the manufacturer made a mistake as to what they fit on. the guy said that they dont have them for the ZX2 or the MX-3 so before you all get so excited that you pee your pants :laugh: maybe somebody should give these guys a call

THE REPLY
Currently all 32 Point Adjustable Coilover are discontinued due to pricing
structures. Our compnay are still under negotiating with the Manufacturer
for competitive pricing. Thses coilover are made in Japan by Toser, Tokico
components can be revalved. The coilover can be adjust on height + body + 32
point damper settings. Untill we are able to offer more competive pricing or
else this product line no matter how superior quality, We won't be able to
offer to consumers.
Again thank you for the info, our company will difinitely will try to have
more Mazda products available.

I'd love a set of coilovers for my mx. I think I'm going to try to find a set of universal racing dampers that look like they'll adapt to this set up. I don't think that everyone should jump on the coilover band wagon though. They can be very dangerous when not adjusted properly. You could seriously **** up the corner weights of the car by adjusting the coilovers wrong. Also the gain in handling wouldn't be fully appreciated unless you have access to a set of scales. Most people should consider a good strut spring combo.

even without corner weighting, full coilovers are superior to almost any spring and strut combo
