I am getting really different reponses from a search.. for a gsr rear sway bar do i need subframe reinforcement? i hear that i need them and that i dont.. i dont wanna spend the money if i dont have to.. let me know how it goes... also... since my car is a 96ex i have a front sway bar... if u put a gsr sway on the rear, would i feel anything better with the stock front sway and then upgrading to the itr bar?

I am almost certain that you will need to use the gsr rear lcas...and gsr rear lcas do not work on eks.

i know i dont need gsr lcas... and i know they dont fit since they are too short.. basically do i need the subframe kit? i know i will with type r

you do not need gsr rear lcas. you just need si endlinks since you already have the sway bar endlink hole in your stock lcas. i would doubt you need a reinforcement kit with a stock gsr sway since its only 14mm but it also wouldnt hurt since youll be upgrading to a 22mm or 23mm itr anyways. and i would also suggest the asr reinforcement kit since there hasnt been any subframe tear issues with it yet and plus im running it on my car. one thing though...your stock exhaust will not clear the sway bar bushings on a 22mm rear sway with their kit. at least mine didnt..also you will feel major improvement with an itr rear sway and your stock ex front. but you should look into an si 26mm front so your car will be more neutral in corners but still set a little towards oversteer. good luck

thanks alot man... so if i get the beaks kit... the one for 160 with the 22mm bar, bushings, brackets etc (everything except endlinks ) i should be good... it comes with their reinforcement kit

yea the thing about the beaks kit is that there have been cases of the subframe still tearing since our subframes are one of the weakest stock. i got the asr just to be safe since im gonna be tracking my car.
