Sounds like you are all set. I'd avoid the Moog End Links, I have had some problems with them. But then others really like Moog. Maybe Bacardi11 or Slverbullet will chime in?
Let us know how you like the upgrade. I felt an instant difference. By the way, there is also a couple of options for the front including the TRD blue 32mm and Figs 30mm. I bought the 28.6 mm gs 400 bar , but little did I know it was hollow :-(

you could also find one on eBay, Craigslist or a salvage yard.

Sewell is in business, they just shut down their formerly very helpful parts website. It was a sad day for all of us on the forum, for sure. They still sell parts, just not through their former web venue.

Thank you for this thread. Curious on improvement in "body roll and reduced handling" - any numbers as g-skid or slalom times before and after? Any autocross times?
Or only a general feeling
Trying to see if getting stickier tires gives more for traction

This thread is like 5 years old. But yes, sticker more aggressive summer tires, or road legal "track" tires will always provide better grip and are the 1st upgrade you should look into when trying to decrease Auto-X or Track Lap times. Better tires always beats any other upgrade bar none. Driving a stock crappy car with super sticky tires vs a sportier car with stock OEM All seasons, the crap car with sticky tires will win. Go to any Auto-X and see stock Miata/MX-5s beat a lot of cars because they came with a set of track tires.
As to why a stiffer rear anti-roll bar helps driver control and puts more downward force on the inside tire when the car is loaded in a corner.

I actually de tuned my ultimate banzai handling by going with 45 series taller tires. Living in so cal with bumpy freeways I felt it would get better ride quality than 40’s after sway bars and MeisterR CRD struts. Worked out well. Takes 20 miles or so to warm up everything suspension wise but rides motionless on the freeways at 80 and above mph. 33 psi. Went to Palomer mountain road which is tight switchbacks to test its handling. Slight tire roll noted. More psi would address that but if you were in the passenger seat on that wild ride your eyes would have gotten big. Double the posted corners speed recommended. Plus I could have turned up the struts. Not needed unless track use so far.
