Gavins all out suspension mods

[HotRodMex]

Good lord! Bilstiens! And Vogtland springs! and KAW (don't know who they are)!

And complete suspension packages...

[gavin]

Dutch626 had shown me the Bilstiens a while ago when we were hunting for stuff on German E-bay. They are a standard replacement item(Zee Germans, zey haff everythink). Seriously the Germans have all sorts of Mazda stuff.(I think Dutch finally found his self-leveling headlights in Germany)

tuninghaus certainly has some impressive packages, but they dont specify what exactly are in them. There are Sport(yellow) inserts for the 2nd gen in Europe and Special(red) inserts for the 1st gen.

What Dutch found for me is a 12yr old set of 88-92 Sport Package(Yellow inserts AND springs). It would be cool if there were some more of these packages that existed, but tunighaus just doesnt mention part numbers (especially since it seems they build their own kits). If there would be a place where they would still exist though, it would be in Germany.

If you don't know what it says, scan it or take a pict of the instructions and I'll translate it for you. (That's what I get when most of my friends are from Japan...heh..) e-mail is noloveforthevtec@yahoo.com You're welcome, if you need me to translate.

Is that a stock trailing arm the adjustable one? I think its a trailing arm not sure. If not what did you use to mod it. Also did you ever look into energysuspension for bushings? You know the universal stuff were you measure your bushings and find what fits?

I think what you are looking at is the rear lateral link. Thats the stock item on the car and all 88-92 626/mx6 and 89-92 ford probes.

Never looked into Energy Suspension for bushings as there were two companies (Noltec and SuperPro) that had the correctly sized urethane bushings already (granted, both are australian based companies).
