Cloud9,

When did you ordered the front sway bar from Mazda Motorsports? I called them about it two weeks ago and the item is out of stock. The guy I spoke with stated that they sourced it from ProParts and it will probably not be available due to low demand.

There is a guy on Facebook RX7 Group and his name is Ryan Muller. He has a group buy for the old Tripoint front adjustable sway bar arms and you will have to source the rest of the parts to make a complete front sway bar kit comparable to the old Tripoint front adjustable sway bar for the FD. You can source the parts from 1speedway.com and Coleman Racing.

Ryan Muller is going through a shop that bends/heat treats the arms for him. I think the group buy for the arms is ongoing until the end of the week.

I ordered mine in April of 2019. Been sitting on it quite awhile haha. But yes, this is the swaybar that was made for Mazda by ProParts. Shame to hear they stopped producing them.

That solution by Ryan Muller you described sounds like a good one, though. If I didn't already have this I would pursue that route. Getting bent aluminum arms was always the hardest part. If someone is making and selling those, the rest of it is easy.

cloud9,
Are you running a spacer on the Sakebomb sway bar mount and the Mazda Motorsports sway bar? How's does it handle with/without the spacers? With the spacers on the mount, it will bring the adjustable arms level with the ground. This is preferable according to the old Tripoint sway bar set-up.

I knew I was going to be lowering the car with the new coilovers so I am not running the spacers.
