looks like you covered it.

oem strut mount ftw. don't forget the dust boots (search for kyb mustang/miata part numbers).

other than that you're golden.

 

yeah got the dust boots info
oem strut mount are better then anything else thats out there?

 

yup.

 

nice thanx

 

Just Decided to keep my 96 and "Max" it out (pun intended)
I had bad lower control arm (ate the crap out of tire)
so I ordered kit from e-bay that included:
both lower control arms (with bushings), tie rods, and sway bar links for $160 shipped http://stores.ebay.com/ACCARS2006
Although it took 5days to get to me, the parts were very good quality.
I had to pay $700 for installation (included mounting & balancing 4 tires) too big a job for my tooless self. Upgraded to 17" rims off of a 2004 350z and ride is much better
Now I am ordering springs and struts (probably tein s with KYB GR2

 

thats not bad how do u feel the car drives now?

 

How's the quality of the parts holding up? I just bought the full kit as well and will probably be installing them next week.
