GSR Lower control arms on a 92 Civic Hatchback
The GSR lower controls allow you to have a stock Honda anti-sway, and seem to be of a more sturdy design.
Thanks to Don (aka mrlegoman) from www.reddotmotorsports.com for the pieces for this upgrade. Contact him for other parts.

Re: GSR Lower control arms on a 92 Civic Hatchback (shawnhayes)
are you going to be upgrading to the factory sway bar/factory arm from the suspension techniques set up? tell us how it works out.
im running the susp tech set up on my car also.
it seems to me that where the ST bars attach (shocks) would have more leverage/control over the arms then in the middle of the arm. if u look at the pic maybe you can see what i mean.
EDIT: also.. with the ST set up, did you have to cut your brackets to allow the installation of the lower tie bar?

However I don't think that I like the idea of using the shock mounting hole for the sway bar. You are gonna end up with 2 opposing forces on the same bolt/hole.
