sway bar diameters and tuning

im looking for information about diameters of the ANTI sway bars for the series 4 rx-7

id like diameters for

base model
turbo II

and if anyone knows any off hand, aftermarket sway diameters.

im looking for a good combination of front and rear.

to switch to series 5 bars all i need are the endlinks right?
i have a lightened base model right now, will simply a tII rear bar tighten up the rear alittle? if i recall there was about a 50% difference between the two.

any information would be cool. lets make this a thread worth keeping.

First off, there are no anti sway bars on an RX-7. There are only stabilizer bars.

Anti sway bars are for motor homes, and usually only attach to the axle and body or the body to the suspension.

stablilizer bars attach to the suspension, then the body, then the body again and then the suspension again.

Multiple points as opposed to single points.

*edit< and then Mazda calls them stabilizer bars as well on all the shop manuals, and parts manuals
