86-88 Vert and Coupe

Front sway bar has 2 options: 22 or 24mm

Rear Sway Bar has only one: 13mm

The 86-88 RX-7's have 2 different front sway bars, but the size of the bar is not dependent on whether or not the car is a vert or a coupe. All 86-88 RX-7's have 13mm rear sway bar.


89-91 Vert and Coupe

Front sway bar has only one: 24mm

Rear sway bar has 3 options: 14 or 12mm on coupes, 12mm on verts.

All 89-91 RX-7's have a 24mm front sway bar. Some of the 89-91 RX-7's coupes have 14mm or 12mm rear sway bars, while all 89-91 verts have a 12mm rear
sway bar.


Edit: You are exempt from a flaming since, using the search function, it took me 20 minutes to find a post that I knew was out there. You didn't know it was out there, so your ok. Hope this helps.
