I have a 99 miata with stock suspension. I am wanting to purchase sway bars I am between flying miatas kit and the racing beat front tube. and rear solid. I saw on a forum that a guy said "you only need a front Rb tubular bar" I want my car to be a bit stiffer in a corner and I dont mind a good slide "Drift" every once and a while? can you help?

From my experience, both options are nice. My wife's NB had the FM bars and it was easy to rotate it, but still predictable. I use a solid RB front bar because I like the reinforcement blocks/mounts you can buy separately. I use a stock NB rear sway in the back. My car is an NA and more track-oriented.
I always felt the hollow RB bar was a bit overkill.

You can use the blocks from RB on the FM bars as well?

I thought about that after I posted. I suppose, I haven't looked at them in a while. I would if they do, indeed, fit.

They have nothing to do with which bar, you could use them on the stock bar if your were so inclined.

Those blocks are highly recommended if you push the car hard while driving. I have seen a few torn mounts.

And its only needed (and supplied) for the front, I guess?
Edit:=> Guess the brace will also help?

I have no experience with that brace.
I have rarely seed damage to the rear mounts, mostly broken stock endlinks.

That brace isn't worth it. Just use the blocks.

Brace does not make any sense from a loading point of view either...
