I was just looking at the order I placed for the Flying Miata VMax suspension, and I see where I ordered the NA 90-93 kit.

 

The Molvo is a 1006 Miata but and the a-arms are from a 1991.

 

What is not going to fit here?

I read the info and it looks like the VMax kits all use the same spring rates and NB tophats, so I says it'll bolt right in. We'll see if Keith pops in with anything different. I know there are slight differences between NA and NB uprights and A-arms , but they're pretty much LEGO cars and everything will swap between them. The NAs use different sway bar end links, so I'm pretty sure there is a detail difference on the A-arms to match.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the difference is. I have NB lower control arms (all replacement control arms are the NB style) in the front on my '90 and my VMaxx coilovers and FM sway bars work just fine with it. Honestly, I wouldn't sweat it.

Call them and ask?  Let's face it, we are lucky to KNOW the tech guy is pretty helpful. wink

Yeah, this is a situation where you're much better off calling the vendor than asking random people on the internet. :)

You're just going to get NB tophats included (since you didn't already have them). The shocks and springs are the same. Did you get the springs meant for v8 cars? Might be helpful in your case.

The correct answer was to call. Thanks to Eric in tech support, I now know a bit more about Miatae than I did before.

 

Turns out the parts are not shipped yet and the difference would have been the sway-bars would not fit the 96 chassis. That would have sucked. Easy fix.
