I'm 98% sure I'm using miata bushings and miata C-mounts and just using s2000 bolts. Oem C-mount wouldn't fit the miata bushing. Maybe they do?

I used...
Miata bar
Miata bushings
Miata C-mounts
S2K bolts
S2K endlinks

The Eibach bar is hollow. It is 32mm OD. I have not seen any information on wall thickness.

How do I know if my AP2 is 120 or 130 series? Searched a bit, couldn't find an answer.

Because he wants to know? I believe 06-07 is 130 series. My 2006 has the 25.2mm rear bar.

Here's a better reference for OEM springs and sway bars

Characterization of the Honda S2000 Original, Equipment Suspension Springs, John McCanless (s2ki.com user name: twohoos)

edit: all AP2 rear bars were 311 ft/lbs.
