Suspension Technique sway bar kit ( front+rear ) please read
Hey guys, a local guy sell his kit of front and rear Suspension Technique sway bar for cheap with the urethane bushing.
I want to know if someone had this kit before and if it worth the $.
I have a 1995 Civic coupe Si/Ex with the OEM front sway bar. Omni full coilover street version.
Would it be a good thing to add on my car ??? I know that I have a lot of body roll when I push the car. My tire are a race coumpond and they are really sticky but th car have a lot of body roll like I said ( It was when I was running with my KYB AGX and HR race and didnt tryed my Omni yet... )
Most of the time I run the car on the street so I dont need somethind too stiff I think...
What you guys think about this kit for my application ? is it a good product ?
Thanks a lot !
Mat ( ok I know that they wont do anything at the dragstrip lol )

i love my ST rear sway bar, it made a night and day difference, and i dont have a front sway at all.
i traded a used vafc for mine, so i guess 160 bucks, i dunno.

I currently have the ST full kit on my eg and it has made quite a bit of difference but I plan on tracking my car quite a bit this summer and am going with full Type-R setup. I think the ST kit is more than capable on the streets and auto-x. I'll probably be selling mine soon so if anyone's interested...

A big improvement on my EJ1 especially the rear sway bar. 4+ years still going strong and no stress cracks either. I go to the mountains and canyons on a regular basis with this sway bar set. It's perfect for daily driving and the weekend canyon/mountain runs. The quality of the bars and hardware is superb

mines not, but it wouldnt hurt to reinforce your subframe to be safe.

same thing happend to me , but it was jus tthe L shaped brackets, we just fabbed some up out of scrap metal. u could go to a parts store, or maybe call ST and see how much it is to get those peices.

I wouldnt get the front if I were you. You want to make your car feel more balanced rather than preventing the body roll. no matter how high you go on the sway bars, youll still have body roll.
i got the 19mm ST rear bar on my DA and it made a world of difference. the rear actually follows the front around now. going from heavy understeer to slight oversteer is a great feeling.
