well as far as I found there really was no kit made for the mx3. I bought a set up off eBay for a Tiburon and had it installed but never ran it. I didn't like the way the bags fit in the rear strut holes...they rubbed. so I am going to find a set of air cylinders for the rear. you will need allot for the setup, struts, compressor, lines, fittings, wiring, switches, solenoids, gauges etc. I got a pretty good deal at about 1500.00. and before anyone gets on my case about racing out the mx3 I bought these to lift the car for my mother being very ill for the last couple of years of her life to make it easier to get in and out.

the rest of the stuff like lines,compressor,switches and stuff i can track down cheeep since ive got connections on this kinda stuff, im just trying to figure out what kind of bag i can throw on without rubbing issues...ive wanted air ride for to long to just let this go lol.....were the bags for the tirburon the style that slide over the strut in place of the coil? you had no problems with the front, only the rear?

*edit*
i emailed Easystreetair.com and this is what they reccomended for the mx3.
