anyone knows what kind of support is this on the asr subframe? i have same swaybar as in picture (17mm eibach) and i would like to fit it exacly like this. instead of the integra swaybar.
thanks in advance.

kyden

the beaks bar? it isn't a support at this point anymore. it's just there to look "cool".

Beaks bar doesn't do anything in terms of structural support. Don't bother with it

joprez

lool not the beaks bar. that black support that holds the bracket and swaybar bushing...

That's the factory swaybar bushing bracket. This is the first time I've seen anyone use it with the ASR.

Why not? It's not an ASR swaybar. What else would you use?

joprez

but is the ek bracket? i think the eg bracket is not flat on the bolts

EDIT:
found this bracket.

is this the EK bracket? i need to know this to instal my swaybar

looks like the stock integra mount 12/13 in this pic

I believe with the asr brace you should just mount the d bracket straight to the brace

the integra bracket doesnt look the same. subframe is the same as eg so its not flat wont fit the asr i guess

egsleepercivic

ah... maybe its the 99-00 si bracket, looks flat in the diagram

joprez

yea.. you have no idea how much time i got searching this on internet just today that i made search again and bumped the post i realised.. thanks for help
this is a tricky stuff ill try to get it and see if it works.

Isn't that a Suspension Techniques anti-swaybar kit?

joprez

nope its a eibach 17mm. its the same as mine waiting for months on the garage.. brand new

Did you try contacting Eibach for mounting hardware or does it not come with any?

joprez

it makes no sense to ask for mounting hardware for asr subframe.. the mounting hardware is just some special poly bushings that fit oem 92 civic but then again try to put a oem swaybar on your asr subframe... doest fit. you can say i dont need the asr subframe and maybe your right but i know subframe is weak and its a great upgrade so i can put any swaybar i want and btw 17mm is much stronguer than 13

Wrong!!!
I am running a stock (OEM) swaybar with stock hardware ON an ASR subframe brace. I think you have some details twisted or going off erroneous assumptions.

joprez

that is the integra swaybar it is not oem for 92 civic. im talking the 13mm
that swaybar shall have about 20or22 mm

grumblemarc

That's NOT what you said.
I've seen all kinds of stock swaybars mounted to the ASR subframe. From the 13mm to 17mm to the 22mm.

joprez

OEM for the Eg6.. seriously why are we discussing this?
btw how you instal a 13mm swaybar into a eg6 with asr if not with the 96-00 civic bracket?

Edit: may be i didnt expressed/explained all the details:
my 17mm eibach swaybar or anti-roll bar (not anti-sway bar) is a direct fit on eg6 with all stock stuff. just need to put the poly bushings that comes with it and instal into the original d-brackets. you dont need to pick any other stuf from other cars..
problem is that eg6 brackets seem to not fit on asr. i think with a 96-00 civic will work like in the pic. anyways np ill just try it and will give feedback.
if you know a better way to instal it as you saw it so many times than explain me please thats what i need.
dont be so much intolerant im not even talking my language.
peace

Granted. I don't have a 5th gen any longer so I guess I'm having difficulty understanding why OEM hardware does not work.

What the hell is going on in here!?

That is the first time I have ever seen someone use that bracket on a ASR, and it makes me wonder why they would do that.

That black peice is not a "support" it's mearly a factory bracket that bolted to the factory subframe.


Why do you want to use the bracket?

grumblemarc

iTrader: (4)

That's what I'm trying to figure out. OP is adamant.

98civdx

All he needs is some Energy suspension adjustable D brackets, and it should bolt right on with no problems.


How they even got that bracket on there is what i'd like to know.

joprez

nope i also only realised of it when i got it in my front. unfortunately the swaybar has a curve on that position so with the bracket looks to work perfect there.
look carefully on the picture may be you can understand. its not much perceptible but makes all the diference.

BTW i think the bracket by itself it may be not enouth..
