Yeah like Tcoat said there must have been something done incorrectly with that TRD spring install. They aren’t a very aggressive spring rate at all. You lose some ground clearance but that’s about it. Shouldn’t be hitting the bump stops all the time.

I easily noticed the stiffness going RCE yellow over the factory MY17 86 spring. Much better road feel. Downside on bumpy/wavy roads you feel every bit of it through your ass. The factory springs soak up some of the small stuff a bit better. I have only hit the bump spots a couple of times but god damn it's pretty jarring. |

I have a NA8 Miata with 700/400 coilovers, there was no shock.
The tS's suspension and handling is night and day compared to the Hakone with TRD sways/TRD springs. all is good. Wife didn't yell at me the whole 500 mile drive home! |
