          What are you planning on doing for the front sway?

          I'm sure you've posted it somewhere but not in the last 5 pages.

            Yes everything fit just fine. Turning that shaft down with a hole saw worked amazingly well. I had to hand sand it to the final size before fitting the sleeve. I need another set of the tie rod flip bushings since broke both of them trying to remove them from my old tie rods.

            I already had an MX3 front sway bar on there and since the RX-7 used a mount that uses the ball joint bolts I couldn't use that since it was right under the axle so I bought the threaded collars for my K Sports to use a drop link style setup of the strut like a BJ protege.

              i just picked up a RS front swaybar- we should keep in touch about LCA clearance & droplink lengths.

                What size is that RS bar? It may be a while since I likely won't worry about that drop link till this thing is back on its wheels. Still want to finish the brakes, K-Sport re-valve, engine, wiring harness, standalone, header, and intake manifold before It goes back on its wheels.

                  Hey, at least that means that the tapers between the tie rod stud and flip bushings matched perfectly. Those were a pita to make because the tapers had to be super accurate and I don't even remember the exact process I used to make them. When they turned out not to work, I pretty much just expunged all memory of them from my brain (I was sort of sad lol). I have plenty of material though...

                    Well at least the good news is that with the flip bushing the tie rod is almost the exact angle of the control arm from eye balling it on the Kia knuckle. Maybe more people will be willing to try it once I get mine all done and everyone sees the new brakes bolted on and working. I will for sure need them for my wagon because it will have stock tie rods with the Kia knuckles.

                      ~ 19.5mm .5mm is more than likely the OE powdercoating
                      I think its a hollow bar- I.E. equivalent to a BG DX protege front swaybar - which is kind of what i was going for- a little less swaybar in the front.

                        I will have to check the GS bar and see what size it was again.

                            I just swapped an engine, transmission, ecu, and harness out of a 91 egt into a 95 lx automatic and tried to use the wiring in this thread for the black and white plugs and it won't start. Does anyone know how to wire it for a car that came with auto transmission? Even just the necessary stuff just to make it run, I really need a car to drive.

                              You should probably start your own thread with this question.
