Default yipeeee i got the ITR sway bar installed, got Qs

love the sway bar. i think the car forgets to lean now .

anyway i got a Q for all of u that have the same mod.

the endlinks on the sway bar the way they attach to the brackets that come off the LCA. i'm not very happy with. they look too bent back when its on. has anyone noticed this? it looks like the bushing is under too much stress. if u dont know what i'm talking about i'll take pics.

hope i dont get any tickets for testing my suspension like i did when i got my strut braces

What your noticing is that the endlink isn't perpendicular to the ground (BTW, I have noticed this). This doesn't cause any problems. I have been running with the Type-R rear swaybar for 4.5 years and it hasn't been a problem. Also, a tremendous amount of people have also installed the Type-R rear swaybar and there have been no reported problems with this. HTH

i'm not saying its bad. although i'm sure honda wouldnt have engineered it that way, i just wanted to make sure that i installed it right and i'm glad to hear that u guys also have teh same situation and no problems. btw thanx for the instructions, a little more pics would help. i also found it easier to take the welded nuts off when i first drilled through them and yes the RS has the spot welded nuts i duno why, it doesnt have ABS.

thanx for input.

i think some useful shots would be the mounting point i was talking about, side view of your kit installed so u can see the spacer in place, i duno if it would be possible but the spot welded nut.
