sway bars and suspension upgrades
Ok so im doing my suspension upgrades om my 3rd gen and the only thing I havent been able to decide on was what type of sway bars I wanted. I did some searching and saw that a lot of the forum members were using racing beat. I was just wondering if anyone had any other recommendations of others that they might like or preffer.
This is everything so far that was going on the car:
-Tein Flex coilovers
-99' spec brake calipers
-rx7store brake kit(4 drilled/slotted rotors, hawk brake pads, steel braided lines.)
-rotary extreme trailing arms
-rotary extreme toe links
-rotary extreme sway bar mount.
Oh yea I was also wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction on where to get a price on bushings and pillow ball mounts. And what type u might be using. Thanks in advance. If I missed something please let me know...Im trying to do everything at the same time.

You won't need aftermarket sway bars with the spring rates you will be running, IMO, especially at the rear.
Just stick with OEM bushings. Purchase them Malloy Mazda or Mazda Motorsports (become a member, it only requires 2 auto-x per year and you will save a lot of money!).
