Here is my suspension: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=408156
Beaks kit is a must: http://beaksproducts.com/srk-ek.html
ITR rear sway from: http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/
Would suggest leaving front sway stock.
You can also use your stock LCA's (or buy mine! See link in sig!)

LCA's link: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=508345
It will work with any kind of kit. It has the sway bar link holes just like the OEM arms.

Very helpful, but Beaks sells their kit w/ a brand new ITR rear sway (from Acura) to save you time.
Also, if he has an "EK" he must have a hatch meaning he has no front sway. So, I'd say he has an OPTION of getting a 96-00 Civic EX front sway (LCAs also) , 99-00 Civic SI front sway (also LCAs/dampening forks), or just run with no front sway. It all depends on what he wants to do with his car. This is my dream suspension if you wanted to know...

22mm USDM ITR rear sway w/ beaks kit [ http://www.beaksproducts.com ] (you also need SI endlinks)
Mugen front/rear upper strut bars
Spoon front/rear lower tie bars
Tein's (Any kind will suit MY driving style)
Bridgestone Potenza Pole-Position S-03s (I think tires are important)
SRR LCA's (If I ever break mine)</TD></TR></TABLE>

The Stabilizer Endlink's are like 65$ EACH
The ITR bar is like 55$
(+ shipping and handling)
In the end I think you only save like 10-15$ buying the individual pieces rather than just buying the whole kit from Beaks.

True about saving, 10-15, but won't you lose that anyways with shipping? Not trying to be rude or anything, just pointing it out.

Re: ITR sway Bars on Ek. (Eddie HatchBlack)
I've always been wondering why everybody says that the Beaks kit is a must when you add an ITR rear swaybar to a 96-00 Civic, but both the ITR and CTR come with that swaybar and the swaybars never rip out of those cars. Does the USDM Civic have a weaker subframe than a CTR or something? If it doesn't, why does the USDM Civic "require" a Beaks kit w/ a 22 mm swaybar and the CTR/ITR doesn't?
I hope somebody has the answer to my question.

Yes, the CTR has a completely different and stronger subframe.
The ITR is reinforced.

The mounting points are flat, yours are indented.
Looks kinda like this:
edit- Whats wrong with the bold function?
