Spool springs are on!

Well, 2 new endlinks, 3 jigsaw blades, and several dremel bits later . . . I finally got my springs on. Love the handling and tight, composed ride. Much better than stock! Check them out!

Keep in mind, these just got done today so they may or may not settle more.

Terry from Spool TIS is a frequent member of Mazda Forums (msprotege.com, etc.) and he holds groupbuys for them because they only make 10-15 at a time. You can order them at regular price at www.spool-turbo.com. I give them only a partial recommendation though. The rear springs of the batch that mine were produced in were made wrong: coils reversed (oops!) and it took several months before I actually got a good set. Oh well, it's over now and they're on my car.

Looks good. What were the measurements of the drop, just out of my own curiosity?

Honestly, I have no idea. . . Didn't measure.

That's alright. It looks good and I guess that is what is most important.

Thumbs up Looks great Nate

I'd really like to see another Ohio meet sometime before the weather gets nasty. If you hear of anything getting organized, please keep me informed. The new digi-camera (Canon 10D SLR) is dying to take lots of pics.

Sounds like fun, but I'm now in DC for 6 months! There's a NOVA meet today, but it's too late for you to come, even if you leave now

Take pics, and I'll be sure to come to the first one held when I get back
