Love these new product videos, but would really like to see install instruction videos, like the one of the frame rail braces from back in the day.

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Did you check out the install playlist on our channel? We've also got quite a few instructional videos in the works and should be posting more very soon! :)

[@histandard31]

@@FlyinMiataVideo Yes, but I didn't see one for these bushings. Some of the reviews I've seen are stating it is a much harder install than anticipated.

I am loving this video

I installed these two weeks ago and noticed no difference in NVH. The install was much more difficult than I anticipated. Specifically, removing and reinserting the steering shaft into the coupler on the rack. I had to insert a piece of steel in the coupler, then thread a bolt in from the back to spread the coupler enough, then reinsert the rack.

Difference in steering feel?

[@Nick--_]

@@noncog1 VERY slight improvement in response. However my car is currently on 185/60/14 all seasons. I suspect that with a less roll-y tire you'd probably feel it more.

[@noncog1]

@@Nick--_ yeah, i was thinking through the links of the chain, didnt see it being a big part, but if you can tell at all, its worth it as cheap and easy as it is. Also why i dont think anyone could tell an nvh difference

[@Nick--_]

@@noncog1 Yea, I'm not upset with the purchase. It's not too much money and was something to do and I learned something. It just wasn't much of a change. One way I was looking at it is that it improves response without sacrificing ride quality and that's hard to do.

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Sorry you had some issues with the steering shaft. Hopefully it was worth the install!

[@Richibald1]

A little off topic what are the mag wheels on both cars in the frame please. Multi installs suggests you must be pleased with them, they look great. Looks can be deceiving.

[@projectrally]

They’re FM’s kogeki wheels. FM designed them and sells them.

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Those are our FM Exclusive Kogeki wheels. The bronze are 15x7, and the silver are 15x8. They are strong, lightweight and look great on almost any Miata! More info here: flyinmiata.com/collections/wheels

@@FlyinMiataVideo ok thank you very much. Will contact support for more info. Hoping to get 15's without rolling my 1996 fenders. 14"tires are getting very hard to find and car looks so much better. Stronger better handling wheels sound great. Thanks again 🙂👍
