I'd like to add progress sway's to the list

http://www.progressauto.com/products.../productID/759

Had them on my miata, the bushing and brackets were over-the-top amazing and the bars were perfect.

Any input from others users? I think my list is not complete, I just send an email to Whiteline to get the missing information about the 22mm front.

Am looking at getting the progress I mentioned earlier and got some more in-depth info from them. Slightly softer than other options so I might pass.

The FRS/BRZ Progress sway bars are a solid bar design front and rear.
The front OE bar is 18mm. The Progress is 21mm nonadjustable a 70% increase in rate. With a rate of 225 lbs/in.

Does anyone have specs or feedback on the Tanabe 22mm hollow front bar? I'm looking for an alternative to the Strano unit due to fit and availability issues. I also like that the Tanabe bar uses antiwalking tabs. Thank you!

Maybe you can ask tanabe directly and let us know! And I will update the first page!

FYI My current setup is : 16mm whiteline sway bar with braces for the rear and 25.4mm Hotchkis sway for the front. I love the setup and the feel with less body roll compare to stock.

Details : Soft, first hole position for the front bar and middle position for the rear.

I emailed them for technical specs and went ahead and ordered one. I'll update this post with data when I get it. Thanks for the useful list!

2/11update from tanabe-usa
Japan got back to us with some information regarding the front and rear Tanabe stabilizer bars. The stiffness rate for the Front is 205% and the Rear is 235% stiffer compared to Japan OEM. The difference OEM between*for the US and Japan is in the rear. The front outside diameter of the bars are the same but for the rear Japan is 14mm thick compared to the U.S. which is 13mm thick.

First post Updated. But am not sure about the size of the US rear sway bar... Who can confirm? I have my sway bar but its difficulty to measure without the correct instrument...

14mm appears to be the correct diameter for the US rear sway bar.
