Hmm, sounds like my MR2 ... full roadrace TRC springs and Kayaba gas 
shocks. I might like that! :)

Na, not really. Not in the Spider. 

The IAP spring set is pretty good: lowers the car just about an inch and 
gives a pleasant ride, but I find it still just a tad on the soft side up 
front. I've got the red Konis cranked up to 1/2 their compression damping 
and I'm going to have them turned up another notch or so, see what that 
does.
