Miata springs on an fb

Alright so I've searched this ten pages deep and got frustrated so here I am. Will miata springs work with our cars? I've read that they fit on some of the interchangeable parts threads, but how well do they work? Is there any modification needed to make them fit, and how happy are those of you that have done it? I can't afford coil overs right now so I don't want to hear about how that's the right way to do it. I have my eye one some if they'll work, especially since the spring options for us is less than enticing to say the least.

Really nobody knows? Maybe I'll just go find some stock ones and test fit one to see.

Awesome all I needed to know, thanks. Unfortunately there's still that part of me that wants to know how the guys that have used them made them work. Probably won't try it on my cart though, but still curious.
