Who here is using mazda comp suspension stage 2 kit?

Just wondering if anyone was using the mazdamotorsports.com suspension stage 2 kit?

K-STG2-91-RX7 C SUSPENSION KIT, STAGE 2 1 2ND GEN RX-7 ALL 1986-91 $1,735.00

Notes: IT SUSPENSION KIT. Includes Camber/Caster Kit (0000-04-7205-AC), Front Coil Over Strut Kit (0000-04-7201-AC), Koni Adjustable Front Strut Cartridges (2)(0000-04-7211-KN), Koni Adjustable Rear Shocks (2)(0000-04-7214-KN), Rear Shock Mounting Kit (0000-04-7206-DP), Rear Shock Mounting Studs (2)(0000-04-7214-AA), Rear Camber Link (0000-04-7421), Eibach ERS 7' Front Springs (400lbs) and 10' Rear Springs (275lbs), Eibach Sway Bar Kit (0000-04-7302-EB).

Seems like a nice setup... it includes the sway bars and camber/caster plates too.

$1735 for the whole kit too... not a bad price if you have some old autox records lying around.

It's a competition part, meaning you don't need to be a Mazdaspeed member.

I've been thinking about this set-up too. I'm still at least about 6 months off from purchasing a suspension (still worried about tires, maybe wheels, and brakes), but when the time is right, there's much to choose from - Mazdaspeed, Tein, Ground Control, JIC, etc.

the price is right too.

Especially those springs - that would make it easy to change rates if you must between street/auto-x/track. Not that it's cake to change out springs, but you have the option.

The only thing really missing from the kit is hte bushings, which are pretty cheap from Mazdaspeed as well.

"Excuse me, Mazdaspeed, yes, send me everything for an FC suspension."

Jerry,

which bushings are you referring too? the bushings on teh sway bars?

i think they come with them? if you looking for replacing the worn out suspension on your car, then just goto energy suspension for a set... 100 bucks for the whole car.

the reason why this setup is good,is that none of the parts are hard to come by if something breaks or you like to change something.

the springs can be found in any rice shop, same with other parts... unlike the japanese tuner stuff like tein, JIC and others

No, not the sway bar bushings. Those would come in the package with the Eibach sway bar.

I was referring to the front and rear control arm bushings, and the toe-steer eliminator bushings.
