    1000/300 front/rear will be stiff. Dunno if it'll be harsh though. Definitely will be interesting.

      I know nothing about the springs. I picked up mine used off of another members wagon! Hope it works out well for you and curious how it will look.
      Hey, I'll try to post up some pictures soon, I need to do that anyway...

        Stiff, definitely. If my tires had less sidewall, it would likely be edging toward harsh, has a lot more of a 'performance' feel but still doesn't ride like trash and isn't so stiff it's bouncy. I would NOT go any heavier because it would stat to get bouncy. I know the ride won't be everyone's cup of tea, but this boat doesn't float anymore.
        Handling definitely improved greatly. Still needs more grip, and better sway bars/new bushings. But that's all the supporting stuff for stiffer springs (in my eyes). So for right now, I'm certainly pleased. Gonna take some swooping turns on the interstate, since it's too long of a wheelbase for the twisties on the back roads I normally hoon the Miata on, though I did do an uphill run on those last night to make sure...
