Order placed .. awaiting new bump stops and new spring seats. Figured I would replace those as well while I'm at it .. rubber only last so long.

You ordered the spring seats from onlinemazdaparts.com? I had a little trouble there, once: ordered the metal part and got the rubber spring seat. I think Kansei did the exact opposite. It'll be interesting to find out what you get. Hope it works out for you.

We'll see what I get then I guess .. that's funny tho.

On a side note, am I gonna have to cut the stock MSP bump stops or are they short enough for my lowered (1.5") ride?

No cutting necessary.
You'll have 3/4" less travel than the MSP, but with the stiffer suspension, it will require more force to compress it that far--no worries.

Good .. I just wanna get this over with. I'm trying not to drive my car too much until I get it done, but I have no other means of transportation. So I just hope the little bit of driving I gotta do until I get the parts doesn't kill the struts.

Yea .. everything came fine. Already got it installed too, I feel a lot better about the overall suspension setup now. Thanks again Josh.

Yea it's getting closer and closer to the final stages. A stiffer rear swaybar would certainly complete the package, but it'll have to wait..
