Default 4-point rear strut Q

So apparently the passwordJDM 4-point rear strut will not fit my 95 civic coupe and will only fit the hatch model 92-95. I thought the trunk layout was the same but the store rep said it will not fit the coupe... I want to get the best rear strut that I can get to stop the body roll im getting when I AutoX are there any suggestions? Im looking at the passwordjdm 2point but I was really hoping to find a 4point for even more support..

They have a 2pt + trunk brace combo. Maybe search for a custom fabricator?

Strut bar are not what you need. You need swaybars.

1.) what made you think a bar for the rear of a HATCHBACK would fit your COUPE? Your car has a trunk - the hatchback does not. Seems simple to me...?

2.) if you don't have swaybars, that's the investment you need to make. The Type-R Integra bar is generally cheap and effective, with the Suspension Techniques bar coming in a close second in my experience. Either one of those will help you greatly.

Gotcha, I was just looking at the ASR subframe + Beaks tie bar combo, that looks like it should be pretty effective.
