What setups are everyone running here? what is a good cheap deal? I hear ground control is a good setup for only $399 for all four coilovers..

I'm running Tokico Illuminas with Suspension Techniques springs. The ride is pretty good, and the car handles well. I'm also using the Mazdatrix metal sway bar links, as well as the Mazdatrix strut tower brace.

http://www.coximport.com and http://www.shox.com usually have good deals. http://ww.k2rd.com has a good deal on the KYB AGX shocks and struts.

I'm currently using factory spec stuff...minus a GREX strut tower bar. I am trying to keep an all GREDDY/TRUST theme on my car...I will probably get the TEIN suspension...but not for a little while..its mega $$$! If I get antsy..I'll probably go w/ the AGX's and INTRAX springs....

I've heard that the Intrax springs aren't very good. My friend had them, and he didn't like them. I like the ST springs, but the RB springs are also very good.

That stuff takes an hour or two to install, you lazy bastard! Bring it to my house, and we'll do it on Saturday.

I got tokico shocks and eibach springs. And they're adjustable but only up to 1&1/2 in. It's kinda hard to find adjustables that lower any less for an RX-7. And if you do, I don't think it would be as good of a ride. But mine's rides pretty tight. And it ran me close to $900 for the whole set. :smilewinkgrin:
