Hope to get your inputs with this see pic below. It uses nitrogen or ordinary air. will this be ok for the mirage for regular use?

Not sure why you'd want to do this. Now, this car has a normal shock and what I'd call a a ghetto MacPherson strut...
Stiffens up your suspension a bit, perhaps? I'd like to know more about this, as I've never seen anything like it.

If you added 750 pounds of load to the rear end, it would probably bend the trailing arms and then you would have several degrees of negative camber or more.

if only you added 750 pounds of load, but what about the suspension for normal use? since the rear suspension is soft will this help prevent it from bumping when going through humps? can this be an alternative with a rubber stopper? or its much better?

You can adjust the stiffness by the air pressure in the bags, they have standard stem on the bottom, just like a tire. You can go to low as about 20 psi if I remember correctly and up to about 100 psi. I've used them in the past. They work great and are completely adjustable. They also make a small compressor you can mount in your engine compartment with an adjustable gauge so you can adjust your pressures rolling down the road if you want.

but what would be the best option to avoid the rear to bottom out when on a humps?
1. change the springs to a better one like the VW springs
2. use a rubber stopper
3. use this airbag/airlift
