MX-5 Coilovers

[@RobWhittlestone]

Actually a good guide to the pitfalls that can be lurking for the unwitting! I'm considering coilovers and a DIY job seems ever more possible, thanks to intrepid DIY-ers like you. My garage wants a small fortune for the job so I'd like to save that money. All the best, Rob in Switzerland.

Hey Rob, thanks very much for the comment! I’d say go for it. If we can do the job then anyone can. Just needed some perseverance and elbow grease. All the best with your project!

@@hedgehogracing Thanks! Unfortunately I can’t use the same brand since Vehicle Inspection needs a Type Certificate (TÜV, equivalent or ABE vehicle use certification) here in Switzerland. H&R coilovers seem to be preferred over here. I don’t want to lower the car by a lot (25mm would be great, 30mm is already quite low) because my NA with 30-35mm lowering grounded on some hilly roads or driveways.
