** EM1 Rear sway bar onto a EJ8 **
Hey guys as the title states haha..
Just wondering would i need to add an ASR rear subframe if i add a em1 rear sway bar?! People say yes & no.. Like put the ASR subframe with the RSB so that the oem subframe doesn't twist...
Most likely get a ASR but just wanted to know peoples thoughts on running the sway bar without it!
Cheers guys!

People say you don't, but I did just for peace of mind. Asr brace is nothing compared to repairing a torn subframe. Also, keep in mind that the Si did come with factory reinforcement for the subframe that isn't present on the Ej8

Pretty sure the sub frames are the same across the trim leves of the 6th gen civic the integra Type R is a different story.

A Si sway bar will bolt onto a EJ8 using almost all factory components. You will need 4 bolts/washers/nuts.
Possibly a drill/10mm drill bit if you do it the way I did.
