Our club was doing a Super-Pro group buy but couldn't quiet get the numbers together.

Perhaps if enough forum members are interested we could inquire again.

We would probably need 5 or more buyers cost would probably be $499 + shipping.

And that's for the GOOD adjustable kit, not the standard one.

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

I have spoken to Mx5 Mania...
We can get a full set including the sway bar bushes for: $510.00. OR $560 for the 'Adjustable' set. This set allows you more negative camber then what is available from the factory adjustments.
(this is my perception of the adjustable set, I'm happy for a guru to correct me or add to this explanation).

Additional costs:
POSTAGE.

If we go through Mx5 Mania, I have agreed on this price with them for us. So, I think I'd much prefer for each of us to call them and order them individually. I would love to set it all up, but I have been struggling to get the time this week to come on here and get this info to you.
Aside from that, I'd rather not be responsible for such a large amount of your money. Mx5 Mania are happy to take the orders individually.

Having said this I still need to give them numbers, so they can order enough sets. Please let me know via phone!! - 0413 443 629

These prices are for NA only!!

If you have another model, call me and I'll try to find out for you.

Lastly, I need to get mine asap, so... please let me know by Monday Afternoon (5th Feb 2007).

Thanks everyone,

Michael

the NB uses all the same bushes except for the sway bar bushes, still should be the same price though.

& don't worry about any for me Mick.

Um,

Stupid question....but what does this package consist of? front and rear sway bars bushes? how many bushes in total?

I am new to the field of MX5's...hence, also want to know the which bushes to get - Super Pro Polyurethane Suspension Bushes or the Super Pro Polyurethane Suspension Bushes (with offset)????

I've only got standard crappy steel radial rims on the MX5, but will soon have some decent 17\" rims...

And if i buy the whiteline sway bars that include the bushes, do i need to also buy this package?

I am getting so confused here.....
I've upgraded...
