March 2012 - I decided the next item to upgrade was the front and rear sway bars. I decided on the Racing Beat tubular front 1.125" diameter bar and the Mazdaspeed rear 14mm bar. I located the rear bar at 949 Racing's swap meet and I purchased the polyurethane bushings from 949 Racing as well. I also bought what I thought was the Racing Beat front subframe brace from the swap meet but it ended up being their sway bar brace and hardware. I purchased the front sway bar from 949 Racing as well.
Installation was simple on the rear as the stock brackets are used and the new bushings fit right in. The front proved a challenge. I am not sure I did something wrong, but I had trouble starting all 4 bolts for the sway bar brackets. I could get 2 started but when I tried to do the other side the holes didn't line up. I finally got all 4 bolts in and tightened.
