In this video, we installed solid door bushings to replace the stock rubber ones, with the aim to improve handling and ride comfort in our Mazda Mx5 Miata. This mod works on ANY mx5 Miata, up to the latest 2022 models. After our test drive, we concluded that this mod does provide a noticeable improvement over the stock door bushings.

I got similar blocks. Shocked at how much it reduced rattles. Tests suggest that it doesn't actually add much stiffness, but the mental effect of it sounding and feeling stiffer should not be underestimated. The stiff blocks just make the car nicer, especially as the old rubber ones are completely knackered after 20 to 30 years
No roof means less stiff but it also means you can easily hop over the door. Weld 'em up. Super stiff. Job done lmao

BANNING VIDEO - LOVING THE SET UP
Just got recommended your video on my main page. For a small channel, especially one of the few aussie channels out there I have to say your production quality and content is amazing. Later this year I'm purchasing a ST165 GT-Four Celica, and this has got me wanting to start a channel of sorts documenting the restoration. PS, I'm from Sydney!

Thank you! That is an awesome car, a restoration series would be really cool to see. One of our crew has a 7th gen celica with a trd bodykit, its in the shop right now, but expect some videos on that one day!

this is one mod i have been debating on for a year or so now and all i see is good so to that my brotha i think you finally sold me on some new Delran door bushing's / stabilizers... peace and love yal keep it rad stay safe and build on ... l8z
A good set of coil overs, front and rear sways & adjustable end links and optional a front upper shock tower brace and new tires will drastically improve the overall handling of your Miata..Trust me!

Great vid, short and sweet ... Keep it up the Miata content! And the bubble tea reference 👍
Older Miatas for rattles makes sense but for performance I think nonsense. Slurpy cheers
Agreed.... Have the OG Kenauto door blocks. Reduced rattles & chassis noise.
i have mazdaspeed ones, door stopped rattling but i have to really give it a firm close to get it to turn off the light inside. Not slam it but just a solid close

Interesting. Atleast the doors stopped rattling!
You can 3d print the door bushings. I had some printed at work in carbon fiber. Basically had the same outcome as you. Not really any noticeable stiffness but the rattles went away and my doors shut much easier now.

Carbon fibre would be pretty cool. Jealous you can 3D print stuff like that!

I have heard they can make a difference in the ND aswell, but I don't have one to try for myself!
Tried these on my Mk3.5 Sport Tech. Only difference was I had to slam the doors to get them to shut properly. Threw them away and went back to standard ones.

Nah, it’s a Japanese Eunos roadster
I have bushes, made no difference, car on 4 jack stands is as stiff as you would need and rocks on the stands before and after. Sure it will assist but it's in no way a game changer, spuds will tell you it's a game changer but it's optimistic at best
These things may be a good product, but $100+ is a ridiculous price for two pieces of polyurethane
3% improvement in stiffness if nothing else has been done.
