    Looks like they are the NB Teins though....

    "The Teins are really nice for DD duty, and give a great drop, but should be run with NB top mounts"

    Correct me if I am wrong, because $120 is what I want to spend.

    The use of NB tophats doesn't necessarily mean the springs are for an NB. Judging by the pictured shocks and the fact that the seller has an NA, I'd say these springs are for the first gen Miata.

    well, I emailed the craigslist guy asking what coilovers they were, and the mileage on the shocks.
    He replied back with

    "About 6-7k on shocks. Coilover shock or coilovers are just the type of suspension the miata has. I don't know what kind of springs they are, but I think the spring rate is 8k front, 6k rear."

    Anyone have any ideas on ways to figure out what kind of springs they are? Any way to check condition of shocks esaily?
