I've got NB Bilsteins and tophats on my '96 and am currently swapping springs back and forth looking for something I like. I have the Racing Beat springs on the rear since this weekend and they still seem a little light. I can't recall which front springs are currently on the car because I have three sets I have been trying out. It sits a little lower because of the NB tophats but I have no measurements at present. I spent most of this weekend's available wrenching time installing a Kirkey aluminum racing seat to get my helmet lower than my Hard Dog and getting it adjusted for fitment. I've just started putting more time into the Miata after leaving it on the back burner for quite a while.

I am on stock stuff too. sucks, I was almost three-wheelin at the last autocross. My friend got a picture lol
Just not quiet ready to make that dive yet. I want to get through my next 3 track sessions (suspension does great there, track is smooth rather than quick and darty like in an ax) before I start the suspension overhaul.

FM front bar on 5" drops to clear the V8
RB endlinks heavily modded to work with my swap.
No rear bar but I have a FM bar if needed. I forgot to weld on the mounts on the lower control arms after moving the shock pockets before I went to paint with the suspension components.
