The regular reinforcement kit


The 32mm rear sway + reinforcement kit


There is another kit with OE Acura ITR 22mm rear sway bar. The kit was made available in late June. Anyone has a chance to use this setup or have heard good words of it? Seems like a solid piece.

I am about to install the CTR rear sway bar (well the bar hasn't arrived yet, hence I am playing with other options) and seeing different stories from people who have claimed subframe bring torn and whatnot. Some say it has to do with your spring rate, some say don't over tighten the bolts and allow room for the sway bar to move and rotate.

I am going to run 14K spring rate on the back and I am using SRR LCA at the moment. I am tracking at the moment but without the rear sway bar.

Thanks

This is what it looked like installed in my 98 hatch with the 22mm itr bar. I like it the piece is really solid and easy to install. I had some minor clearance issues with my stock exhaust but a little cut and weld and we are all good now. If you are using anything smaller than the stock exhaust you will be good to go.....

I wouldn't think you'd need more the the itr bar. I think the jdm itr bar is 23mm. More then big enough in a civic imo.

WOW, thats all I can say.


I don't know who would need such a huge sway tho....the whole kit looks money for sure.

Hopefully it holds up as well as it looks....appears to be all CNC machined Al??

Got damn, that thing is a monster. I still think the Carbing 3point strut bar is better though.

hey guys...

the 32mm setup is actually a hollow swaybar that is setup with a similar stiffness as the 26mm Mugen swaybar. (a thicker wall on the swaybar can be ordered for added stiffness, if desired.)

As for availability, we are finalizing the EG/DC2 design right now, and it will be ready for sale in the upcoming weeks.

If you have any questions for me, feel free to ask me with a PM, my AIM, or my e-mail (chris@a-spec-racing.com)

Thanks,
Chris

Do you mind tell me your suspension spring rates? Obvisouly you are using Beaks kit right?

Thanks

Just look at Real Time Racing's Acura Integra. Same hollow bar concept but their's cuts into the spare tire area.

This bar is definitely not for the amateur driver.
