go to http://www.beaksproducts.com and buy the EG Install Kit. Cost you about $150 if I remember right. Also...you should get some Integra LCA's rather than modify your stock ones. Another thing...make sure you have either a GSR or ITR Front swap first...otherwise you'll have massive oversteer.

so since I already have the stock front sway bar already...I will still have major oversteer if I install the ITR rear sway bar

Stock USDM GSR/ITR Front Sway is 24mm
Stock USDM Civic EX/SI front sway is like 18mm if I remember right.
You're talkin about puttin a bar that is about 5mm larger than the front...which is a lot. Get a GSR/ITR Front Sway before you install the rear. Only other option I can suggest if you don't want to do that...sell the JDM ITR Rear...then buy a GSR Rear Sway. If you do this...you shouldn't have to buy the Beaks Kit since the bar is only 13mm.
There is a site that explains all this stuff very well...but I can't find it. I think it's one of the Geocities sites I found that reached their bandwidth limit...so I can't check. It's in one of the threads in the Integra or ITR Forum under a title like..."GSR vs ITR Sway Bar" or something like that. I'll post it if I find it.

no, should have no problems. the stock ex/si front sway bar is 21mm. it will handle great with the 23mm rear. you might wanna try adding a gsr 24mm front, but that will probably cause more understeer.

you remembered incorrectly. usdm civic (years 96-00) EX sway bar is 22mm and a civic si (year 99-00) are 26mm which i have.
not sure about your 95 civic but i think its a 21mm.
