99-00 SI rear sway bar installed in 96 EX
we have been robbed!!!
all civics should have these! even though it's hella small diameter, it really tightens up the back. it barely cleared my greddy exhaust though.
took all of 20min to install by myself....I give this mod
out of 5....I recommend it to everyone!
I'll get some pics tomarrow

well actually the bar seems to fit ok...it's the bracket that holds the bar that bangs on the exhaust

I did that mod as well...definitly noticed an improvement. 
Too bad the bar was a little bent, and the end link made lots of noise when I hit bumps.
If I get another swaybar in back it is going to be something bigger by ST i think.

Re: 99-00 SI rear sway bar installed in 96 EX (Mr. Suarez)
so it fits perfectly with no mods on a 96 civic EX? I really want to know because I'll go buy one. I was about to get the skunk2 sway bars. Let me know. Thanks.

Re: 99-00 SI rear sway bar installed in 96 EX (Mr. Suarez)
i believe you have to buy the beaks kit for EK just to be on the safe side. total project for me was about $150 (all hardware). depends on how tight you want you back end to be...

yeah the back is already tight, I don't think I'd want to go over 18mm on this car...22mm seems like serious overkill.

I did the same mod this past weekend. Quick and easy suspension upgrade
started a thread about it but died quickly.
Mr. S: what kind of rear tie bar do you have?

I wouldn't go with the ITR rear bar unless you had the Si fron sway.
You'd probably have way too much over steer without something up front.
The Si front and ITR rear sway is the best combo known to man. Oh man, serious fun

Problem is you can't run a 99-00 Si front sway bar unless you have the Si A arms and such....
