As far as the failed tophat mounts are concerned, if one side is gone, then the other side is soon to follow (and the fronts might not be too far behind). I'd check, repair and reinforce as necessary. I'm using Xida coil-overs and I love them! I don't know if they are available in your neck of the woods, but I recommend them highly. As far as you ground-height situation is concerned, I flat-tow my car to every event, so I avoid the dreaded "How do I get this damned thing on the trailer?!" problem all together. I've been doing that for years and I haven't had a problem (yet).
yeah on suspension i will always change pairs, so no doubt the otherone is about to go.
ooo ive never heard of xida ,
😂im not sure ill be able to flat tow
This project already seems as if no expense has been spared, get/do what you think is the best option don’t cheap out now 😊😂
it was meant to be a cheap quick build 😂😂
I like meister clubsports dont get the zeta crd if your going to regulary track it as they are too soft for track imo but great on the road.
Thanks, ill definitely be doing more track than road
YellowSpeed… just had them fitted to my MK1 and honestly can’t fault them…. I normally alway go Meisters too
but are they good for track and drift?
We use Gaz - but only because they're the coilover we have to use for the race series - not had one fail after all the abuse on track but have no idea what they'd be like on the road.
ive had gaz before and loved them. im not too bothered about on the road, ill just deal with it
I'd get in touch with Flyin' Miata and see if they will sponsor you with FOX coil-overs as I think they would be best. Again the exposure in Europe for them would be a good thing. They do know my name, so Please drop it. Thanks, Chris Zinn
yeah we dont see too much flying miata stuff over here but would be good to see it as they do some really good equipment
Fortune auto coilovers with swift springs
thanks ill look these up
I have mounted Öhlins coil-overs which securised the behavior of my car (ND 2017) in trackdays once for all. This modification should have been done much earlier...
are these fully adjustable?
@@Project380 Yes
Fortune auto coilovers with swift springs and then add front lower mount 186mm and rear lower mount 126mm since we are rocking the DOD angle kit
as in spring length ?
@@Project380 yes the DOD angle kit drop knuckles make the miata sit too low even with the coilovers maxed out so you have the lower mounts to raise the car up more so you can turn
im running DOD full front saving up for the rear my buddy has DOD full front and rear we both run fortune auto coilovers with swings springs 9K front and 7K rear
Had some BC BR/DS on my NB2 and it's my go to for anything drifting or lowboy shit. Get some DS 12k-10k fronts with some BR 8k-6k rears and possibly swift springs if the budget can afford it. Everything with BC in each series is interchangeable, so if you don't like your spring rates or dampers you can individually order them directly from BC and they often have BOGO's on all parts. It's also insanely easy to switch springs, dampers, and the locking rings make it easy to lower/raise the car. I also currently have DS 12k fronts and BR 5k rears on my Z33 and they're insanely smooth between all driving styles. Only have praise for BC and their customer service 👍
THIS IS EXACTLY THE ANSWER I WAS LOOKING FOR !
Im drifting on Tein Street Advance Z's, all the way hard upfront and couple clicks softer on the rear, for my friend they were too soft (he and one other run HSD now), it depends on your preference and driving style too. Cant go wrong with BC's thats for sure, but I heard from even US Miata drivers running BC that they like the rear softer so the car is more predictable and less snappy when transitioning, also its good for more grip in the rear since you'll have plenty power.
ive tried tein in the past and found them too soft myself, im a pretty aggressive drifter, but yes your right about being harder up front and softer in the rear
I have HSD monopros and they are very good. But if I wasn't getting them discounted at the time would of bought BC..
Yeah the hsd's were good but your right I'll swaying more to the BC's
I’m currently using bc coilovers on my mk2 hillclimb/rally car and can’t fault them
ahh awesome thank you
So im goig bc's on mine reason beeing they have all the adjustibility and have experiance with them (on a scooby not a 5 mind) and they did everything were firm enough for hard driving at the twist of the dampning knobs and soft enough to not be bone braking on contry roads full of pot holes
You will have everyone with diffrent oppinions if you got mates with diffrent setups try there cars and see how they feel is always the best bet as suspension is always going to boil down to personal prefrance over outhera oppinions
let me know how you get on with the BC's
Hi, i have a mk2 turbo, but its just a road car, tracked just once or twice a year, so probably no good for you, but got meister r zeta crds. They are very good on the road, but a little too much body roll on track. But they do clubsports for the track. I have a friend who has an integra, be used bc's, said they are too harsh for the road, but again, no good for you lol as yours will be a drift car presumably.. Have to meet up at an event some day, im also in suffolk.. 👍👍
Thanks for the info! yeah i don't want anything too soft
Contact Bofi for a set of Tecna Sport
i contacted bofi and they didnt even offer them to me 😂
xr1 stance
available in the uk?
tein
any reason you suggest them ?
@@Project380 quality for price is pretty good I've heard horror stories of hsd threads seizing. But if you want some full custom race proven I would say GAZ those guys make some good shit
BC
any reason you suggest them ?
