OK, i am in a dilemma.
Current shocks are Bilsteins, no history, unknown, were on the car when i got it, one is leaking and i am finally in a financial position to do something about it, service is $154 +GST per corner quoted over the phone buy Fulcrum = $680ish.... also, the currently has no bump stops...was like that when i brought it...possible reason for leaking shock
Replace with something new...
KYB AGX $850ish and use current springs.
V-Maxx coil over kit from Fylin Miata $680ish + shipping, No idea what they are like, but if FM sell them they should be reasonable
BC V1 Coil overs $1250, Mania or $1200 ebay...
Cheers

I cant really compare the shocks you've mentioned from personal experience, other than rebuilt Billies seem to get some favourable feedback for the price (especially as you already have them). Shaikh at FCM is a big fan of them.
Regarding the AGX's - if you want to go down that route i know you used to be able to get them on US ebay for around $500ish landed if you shop around.
