    yes. You just have to either buy the ZX2 bearing (i say bearing but I forget what it actually is ATM) or mod your current one. I just modded my current one. Its all in Mazdaracers site.
    If you call oemfordparts, ask for Theresa Valley. She should know what your are looking for. I ordered mine and got them in 3 days or so. But then again I am in the same state.

            The eibach's are gonna lower my car about an 1" front and rear? Why do these shocks and springs seem like such a deal? The other TOKICO's i was looking at where like $300+ for 4 shocks, and eibach's where like $240...

              They are OEM parts from a heavy bigger car that happen to work with our cars... Just so happens that they are not expensive as crap.

                  The Eibach/ZX2 Tokico combo lowers the car a little bit more than an inch.

                  while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

                    Are the Eibach's for Ford ZX-2 or Mazda Protege.

                      I thought the zx2's would bottom out? What is the best strut to join w/ my ground controlls? I am about to replace my struts, and have read that the two can't be put together. Or so I thought...
