Keep your Mazda Miata planted and controlled with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 341127, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube rear strut that installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 1990-1997 Mazda Miata. Classified OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket), the Excel-G is built on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed damping — not to change it.
- Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: engineered to restore original ride control, stability, stopping, lane-change response, and handling.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: assembled in-house to correctly manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong, thick strut bodies and brackets: designed to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
By keeping the suspension operating as the vehicle manufacturer intended, the Excel-G also helps Electronic Safety Systems perform as designed. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5077), and you can protect your new struts from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB108).
