My brother and I will be getting suspension done on his MX-3. We are going to 15 inch rims and rubber but also need new springs and struts. We are approximately on a 1500 dollar budget for all the above. So I need suggestions to all the components for a good set of springs and struts for this car. We will find the rims and tires. Taking suggestions now.

Curious...I assume parts from the Protege/323 will fit with no problems on the MX-3?

Also, does your bro's car have the four or the V6?

It has the 4. Just for everyones edification this is the same basic 1.6 as what was in the miata. Miata has better cams though
