you can buy them at RX7 store, RX7.com, raceing beat has a set i think. it all depend on the money you got. you could just change the suspension bushings. the so called rear steer eliminator bushings (I forget the acuall name). Or if u rally have the time and patience you can put in new engime mount bushing nd stuff liek that.

My Energy Suspension bushings kit came with bushings for sway bar end links, the 2 front control arm mounting points, the rear control arm pivot points, the sway bar mounts, and ball joint and tire rod boots (which I didn't use, replaced the ball joints earlier). The sway bar end link bushings made a huge difference on my car. Earlier I also replaced the rear steer bushings, my car was hovering all over the road before then.

How much did this cost and where did you get it?

I don't remember where I bought it from (probably from the nopistons shop), a quick google search yielded these prices:

http://www.rx-7parts.com/product_inf...roducts_id/251 $99.99
http://www.suspension.com/mazda.htm $103
http://www.upgrademotoring.com/suspe...suspension.htm $159.95
Victoria British $139.95

There is usually an option of red or black, black being graphite-impregnated, and usually they're the same price. I chose black.
