Nothing on his NA is worth using if he's upgrading to those parts.

I do not know man, thats his call tbh. I know a few guys on track with koni race shocks, GC sleeves and spec rates that still use the NA tophats.

I have an NB, this is a none-issue for me, but in any case, curly is right in that while you are at, you should just go ahead and move to NB top hats.

What's your suspension budget? Miatas have a tone of suspension options across a large budget spectrum. Check out this spreadsheet, its a bit outdated, but quite a few under $1k coilovers have been released since it was made.
