With chain conversions, Audacity 1.3.6 automatically selects an MP3 format that is appropriate for the sample rate of your project. For a higher quality mp3, change the project rate (bottom left corner of the main Audacity screen) to a higher setting.

Alternatively use an external encoder. My favourite is the free "LameDrop".
