I feel it is time to replace the tired suspension so have purchased new shocks/struts & springs & fitting kits.
When I replace them I want to do a straight swap & not use any old parts but cannot find the upper spring mounts & Insulators. They do not seem to be available, I have tried all the obvious places
......any suggestions

If no luck with your search Pete, try giving Clive at MazdaRotaryParts a call. He's got a growing network of worldwide suppliers able to source parts for RX-7's.

Those AGX units have a good reputation. You'll have to do a comparison writeup. And obviously the RX will go faster now ... because RED

Would be good to know how they feel vs what was on there before ...
Looking great and I really appreciate how rust free those inner wheel wells are
