What don't you like about TEINs?
Are you looking for coilovers only instead of springs and shocks?
I bought some dirt cheap used, had them revalved because a buddy had a set of seals to do the work. Well those seals blew, and not Spax won't sell new seals to repair these. Pretty gayed out if you ask me. I knew spax sucked going into it, but i thought with resealing and new springs they would be much better. They were, but who knows what went wrong, and now I'm screwed. I don't know what to buy now since I don't want to ship back to japan with teins and blah blah blah.
Regardless...thanks alot Spax.
Moral of the story: Its too bad H&R doesn't sell coilovers for our cars anymore.

Interesting. I know that Moss sold the Spax for about a year, but I don't recall hearing of one person that tried them.
btw, do any spring/damper combo's actually make for decent performance. The last thing I want is grotesque understeer that probably dialed in for safety of idiot drivers.
$1800 though. I'm just pissed off. Now I think I'm going to do a rebuildable bilstein strut, and need to pick a fairly stiff spring. From what I find though, no one makes a decent spring though, only crap for daily driving. Its pretty stupid if you ask me.
I don't want to be stuck with something that plows through corners.
Sounds like you want the Mazda Comp Spec Suspension. It comes with the Bilsteins and really stiff Eibach springs.

Then I point you back to what I use... FM springs and KYB AGX shocks... a cheap compromise. The springs are about halfway between stock and Spec Miata, and the package can be put together for just under $500. Another option is Ground Controls coilovers for around $400 where you can choose whatever spring rate you want, and then add the re-buildable shock of your choice.
