Flyin’ Miata suspension packages are known as the best all-around suspension available for the Miata, and now you can get them for the newest generation. An excellent performance upgrade, the Stage 2 is what we run on one of our in-house test cars.

Includes sway bars, a set of four springs and shocks, and new rear bumpstops. Only Flyin’ Miata includes the bumpstops in their packages!
This package gives excellent body control without sacrificing the compliance that makes the Miata chassis work so well. The Stage 2 cuts down roll even further than the Stage 1, but still lets the car move fluidly over the road.
Soft top springs:
Front 300 lb/in, 13″ ride height
Rear 175 lb/in, 13.5″ ride height
RF springs:
Front 300 lb/in, 13″ ride height
Rear 205 lb/in, 13.5″ ride height
The actual drop will depend on your starting ride height – we’ve seen stock heights vary by more than half an inch, with the Club and GT-S models sitting slightly lower. The end result is a good balance between spring rate and ride height, giving you enough room for everyday clearance and still being able to absorb bumps before hitting the bumpstops. We’ve known for years that running a soft spring rate with a lowered ride height is a recipe for disaster as the car slams into the bumpstops, so we always run enough spring rate to prevent that. It might seem counterintuitive that a stiff spring will be more comfortable than a soft one, but it’s true.
The shocks are adjustable for damping so you can dial in the car’s behavior to your tastes. They’ve also got a lifetime warranty, so they’re the last shocks you’ll ever need to buy.
These Konis have different choices for the spring perch heights, but our springs are designed around specific perch heights. Please follow the included directions.
Our FM sway bars will address the prodigious amount of lean in the car, and let you fine-tune the overall handling balance to your preference easily.
Please note that the optional headlight leveling system will need to be adjusted with the lower ride height. If your car has the ride height sensor, you can modify it with our headlight levelizer. Alternately, you can do a software recalibration that will teach the car what normal ride height is. Cars without the ride height sensor (some 2018 and later models) will have to recalibrate. If you do not address this, the headlights will aim low and you will have poor night visibility.
