well what I meant is how can you get the text from the brochure pic into the translator?

And I never noticed the numbers in the brochure either... I just went and pulled mine out of the Mooneggs Warehouse and I see the 25 and 22... so yeah that makes sense. But do you think it would list the front one first? I mean why would whiteline make a 22mm rear bar if the MS one was 25? It seems they would list the front bar first (25) and the rear bar second (22). Also I noticed the part number in my brochure is different front the pic you show. Mine has EA03 34 156 instead of EA03 28 156 in your pic.

dun dun dunnnnn the plot thickens :freak:

japan reads right to left not left to right i thought so the 22 was first :shrug: that and isnt it more beneficial to beef up the rear bar on a FWD vehicle...whiteline says that on there website, and they dont make a front bar so it would only be thicker then the OEM front...mazdaspeed beefed up front and rear.... :love:

OMG you guys kill me some times.... :) The front bar was 25 the rear was 22... The front was used in the V6 to help understeer thus its MASSIVE size. MazdaSpeed was the only company that made an aftermarket front sway for the MX. I know a couple of old MXers with the Rear MS bars as the fronts were not only a pain to change but kind of unnecessary for most.

BTW I am loving this thread!

MazdaSpeed quit selling them in like 03' or 04' and last set I saw FS was on Ebay in like 05'. I have not even seen a rear one FS in like 3 years. The front will be nearly impossible to come by but there has to be some out there. I have been looking!

I was actually thinking about buying a 323 / protege rear and modifying the rods :shrug: but then again I have a whitline in the GS and a GTR rear bar in the AWD car, so it it necessary... but if you come across a second set in you travels you know who to call :)

Edit: a THIRD set :)
