Re: Best front/rear sway bar for 5th gen Hatch (formulaEG6)
I have the 22mm teg front w/ ES endlinks and D bushings. 24mm(type r) rear with factory endlinks (soon to go) and ES D bushings. I would like to swap out my front bar for a 24mm(gsr) .. I like the setup very much as it is. . It's a swift one around the corners!

As for what's best...... What are you mostly doing? Auto-X, street, drag, combo...?
I personally have a ITR 24mm front, and 22mm rear. Good handling, but a bit of oversteer. (I don't mind) I think I'm going to upgrade to 26mm front from the SI with the stamped steel LCA's in the near future.

Re: Best front/rear sway bar for 5th gen Hatch (B18C-EJ1)
A combo of AutoX and street - I only have the stock front bar - no rear - looking (of course) for the best of both worlds. - Also run lightweight 15" wheels and Bridgestone SO3's!
I read somewhere that you can use 94-01 integra (GSR) bars on the 5th gen civic but that you have to use the mounting hardware from the integra.

Re: Best front/rear sway bar for 5th gen Hatch (94CivicSi)
Are the factory sway bars better than Suspension techniques?? Like how does the GSR front sway compare to the Susp. Tech.??? Just wondering is it better to find sway bars from like a gsr or itr or just buy the susp. tech. ones????

Stock bars mount to the proper locations, without using ghetto brackets, and extenders.
GSR - ITR are the same front bar. 24mm
GSR rear - 13mm
ITR rear - 22mm

Re: Best front/rear sway bar for 5th gen Hatch (B18C-EJ1)
Can someone post pics of their front swaybar and how it hooks up? I believe the endlinks are much different than what I'm used to (99 Si)
thanks
thanks

Re: Best front/rear sway bar for 5th gen Hatch (clemens)
I plan on going with the Beaks EG/DC "Quick-Swap" Anti-Sway Bar Kit on my 5th gen DX hatch. Do i need to get control arms from another car for the back? Or does the kit take care of that?
What front swaybar should I go with. Mostly street, but I want to get into autocross eventually. Should I just get a Civic Si front bar? from a 92-95 Si or from a 99-00 Si..

If you get it from a junkyard, just get everything you can (bushings, nuts, bolts, etc...) Should run around $200 complete.

Re: Best front/rear sway bar for 5th gen Hatch (MaxBoost)
As I recall from a bud that works at a junk yard that 'all' (need help here) 92-95 EX coupes have rear sway bars - and that all integras (94 and up) have the rear control arms with the holes predrilled for the rear sway bar.

Car was already trashed - Sway bar was laying in the mud! - I will scavenge one sooner or later

You need the front LCA's and sway bar.
If you get it from a junkyard, just get everything you can (bushings, nuts, bolts, etc...) Should run around $200 complete.

Re: Best front/rear sway bar for 5th gen Hatch (clemens)
i know for a fact that to run the si front sway bar you need: sway bar, LCA's, Shock forks, D brackets and bushings. Fitment on a 5th gen i don't know about.
