Handling upgrades for my 95 DX, need some advice
OK guys so I put my KYB AGX's on, and my Tein springs, upper and lower front and rear strut bars, and integra LS mesh wheels, and it still feels sloppy, someone mentioned its because I don't have sway bars, I wasn't aware this was even an option for me to have.. can someone give me some suggestions. Thanks, Josh

Suspension Techniques. They are cheap and it comes with the front and rear with everything you need to install. You will probably have to open up some holes in your subframe but its not a big deal really. They will make a very noticable difference.

This is were I got mine like 3 years ago. You probably only need the rear, the front causes a little understeer if you're really taking hard turns, but for normal driving it makes it nice and tight if you have both.

It's been a long time since i did mine, I am pretty sure I just made existing holes bigger to fit the larger bolt through. Either that or there was a little pilot dimple and you drill there? It has been a while but either way its pretty easy. Also what kind of falkens? Azenis? or some all season falken cause those will suck.

the next few things to help your suspension would be:
energy suspension bushings
front/rear sway bars
rear lower tie bar
upgrade lca's

thanks for the help guys, so far I have the front and rear, upper and lower strut bars, so hopefully the sway bars will help some as well...its not my tires, its like you go down the high way and move the wheel back and forth and its all wavy like and mushy.

If your steering feels sloppy, its probably worn tie rod ends. A smaller diameter steering wheel can make it feel tighter as well.

In what way? your stock lca's are fine you are just wasting your money buying those. The only reason people get them is cause they come in all different colors.
