Steve said you guys were probably going to cut your stock springs.

has anyone switched from the ground control kit to the hr setup?

it seems the hr springs are progressive? I'm curious to know if the ride might be more compliant on sub par roads with the hr while still being firmer than stock.

I'm going to be doing mine soon. What else should I do? The end links right but the eBay miata adjustables? Also noticed my steering wheel is a little sloppy but I think the end links will take care of that.

whether you want a little rake in the stance or not, the height needs to be set with the spring to be right. if you let the shocks jack up the back of the car is going to be rough and inconsistent
