its in the parts catalogs too, there are different part numbers for each bar

 

Yup, beside what comes with the car from factory, we don't really know how many Mazda sold as optional equipment and how many folks bought them straight from the catalog.

 

My 94 R2 has the adjustable version. But I suppose it's possible that it was swapped with a 93 version if they did stop making them

 

FD03-56-48ZA is the 1993 bar, it was $727.40 in 1997. people asked about it, but its so expensive we only sold a couple
F111-56-48Z is the 1994-1995 bar, same price
F132-56-48Z is the 1996-2002 part, which would be black
and then it scrambles the note, but the F111 bar comes back after 9/2000

obviously its 4 nuts, and fits any FD, so its easy to say what should be on the car, but that doesn't mean its correct now

The red fixed bar seems much more common here in Asia, but plenty of people re-paint, so could be a lot of repainted black ones showing up. Everyone seems to want that Spirit R look alike

 

The black bar don't have RX-7 badge, if it is a repaint they'll have to add a badge somehow. It make sense that you see more red fix bar now because the last time they put it on a car was in the 2000s, while the adjustable bar was in 1993.

 

Real ballers go for the Mazdaspeed strut bars (front and back).

 

I have a few sets of those if anyone is interested

 

Real ballers only have the titanium version. I wish I did haha

 

True statement, but that’s more than I’m willing to pay for a Titanium bar, I paid way less for my exhausts that use way more Tiatnium 🤣

 

While it weighs less, Titanium's modulus of elasticity is ~60% of steel's. So the Titanium bar will likely be less stiff.
