Question - The best Sway bars? Best Price?
I have been buying the parts to hit the SE all at once.
I am down to swaybars and can not figure out what I should run. What brand is the best for the buck?
Also what should I put in the tranny and rear end?
I plan on changing that also.
Here is what I have sitting in the garage waiting until next month,
Eibach springs, Tokico shocks/struts, Racing Beat Streetport exhaust system, Tri Strut bar, MSD 6a, under coating, Ball joint , tie rods, and once I decide on the sway bars I am gonna order new bushings for the whole car.

As far as the front ones go...I'll be getting a RB unit ...
From their website:
1979-85 RX-7 Front Sway Bar (shown left above)
Our Racing Beat-designed sway bars reduce chassis roll in turns and increase the RX-7's sensitivity to steering input, thereby improving maximum cornering power. We engineer these components to provide optimal front-to-rear balance utilizing select steel alloys, controlled heat-treating, and specific bar diameter and geometry.
This 1.125 inch OD sway bar completes with mounting hardware (including high-density urethane mounting bushings and bushing lubricant) and installation instructions. All Racing Beat sway bars utilize the stock sway bar links.

1979-85 RX-7
Part Number: 14100
Retail Price: $121.00

Yes Racing Beat front bar.. I still use the stock one in the rear. Another option would be Suspension Techniques or TMC.
A good synthetic MTL in the tranny but NOT in the rear diff! Use regular dino gear lube back there with a LSD additive.

I'm running the RB front swaybar as well. Nice difference in cornering - if you ignore the inherently sloppy steering, the cornering itself is quite firm.
