TRY THIS: Rear Sway Bar Kit - Black [MZ5RSB-BLK] - $195.00 : James Barone Racing, Custom Fabrication

Rookies! Don't know if they are same, but I like to see Mazda 5 when i see link!

Specifications Simulating 1" of body roll:
Stock Sway Bar setting: MAZDA 3 & 5 is 228 lbs/in

JBR 3-Way Adjustable Sway Bar Settings:
Stiff setting is 593 lbs/in
Stiffer Setting is 718 lbs/in
Stiffest Setting is 901 lbs/in

That's quite a jump, more than double on lowest stiff setting. Wish we knew front specs.
