please settle the dispute!! ST sway bars?
i am in the process of finding an aftermarket
front and rear sway bar...
i heard stories of ST bars ripping the subframe...
and blah blah... it gets me a lil worried..
i dont know WHERE i can purchase Si LCA's and how much they are
and if the price is justified rather than getting the ST ones...
does one handle better than the other...
i dont road race (yet) but i love the occasional twisties...
its for a 96 EK hatchback CX model...
does my car come stock with a front sway bar?
i havent even checked...
in any case... what would be the best solution....?
ST bars or Si LCA's with ITR bar?
if it was up to me.. i would get the ST...
cuz i can get em DIRT cheap...and i mean DIRT DIRT cheap...
TIA guys....

I've heard this happening too, but I don't think it has happened to many ppl! and I believe it was b/c of the setup they had. sway bars and a rear-tie bar.
I called ST to ask them about this and they said that they had not tested <U>all</U> rear-tie bars for this problem. Plus it is hard to get the bars to fit with one another....so????
I plan to get ST sway bars too.....how dirt cheap?? let us know, K?

Yup, you have a 22mm front sway bar.
I would go with the SI LCA's for the simple reason that they are ment to have a sway bar mounted to them......get them at either a junk yard, thepartstrader, or from a honda auto wreaker.
I would just use the SI rear sway bar. Unless you plan on racing the ITR is gonna be too much.

dood what are you talking about, none of the USDM EK's (CX, DX) come with factory sway bars
