10 mile review after installing on my stock daily 115k 94 w/ original suspension. Product is of very nice quality, fit and finish is great don't bother with other options. Install was quick and painless. Works with stock airbox, master cylinder brace (also recommend, used provided slimmer nut), and cruise control (hopefully the cable is routed correctly). My car has Paco Strong arms which definitely made the steering sharper and turn in more responsive so perhaps the results of the STB aren't as dramatic. NVH reduction seems negligible but the 63 mph shimmy appears slightly reduced. Front end feels heavier, though I can't imagine you can really feel the 7 lbs increase on the nose, perhaps just a perceived feeling of solidity.
Bumps don't feel any different (no train track crossings as of this review) but every little bit to help increase rigidity on a 30+ year old convertible, car still shakes and rattles. No track/autocross days yet. Butterfly brace next!
I haven't been able to take it for a test drive yet.... Mainly due to the fact that I do not drive my miata in the winter months, but it was an easy install, and I cannot wait to try it out in the early Spring!
After adding Amp EFI coils my factory 2002 sport strut bar would not fit.
The Flyin Miata NB strut bar clears the coils and mount perfectly and looks great also.
Also clears Supermiata EFR turbo and XIDA coilovers.
Nice looking, well packaged, easy to install.
Excellent
