Default sway bars on 93 civic CX??

i have been sifting through posts on here and a lot of people mention sway bars on their cars. i have upgraded my motor and tranny but i still feel some wht lacking on other areas. there is sitll a lot of body roll even after i dropped my car with front and rear strut bars and springs. i would like to upgrade to sway bars on my car as well and am curious as to where to start. what sway bars will fit on my car with no problem and do they just bolt right on??? also are there front and rear or just front or rear. ???thanx for anyhelp

im pretty sure they just bolt right on..depending on what ones you are getting.

http://www.deepstaged.net/installs.htm theres a web site on how to do it with the ones that connect to the strut and not the upper control arm.

you need all four of the lower control arms from a 99/00 civic si, or a 94-01 integra. GSR or SI sway bars will bolt like factory after that.

Except that the lower control arms from 96-00 civics won't work on his 92. He needs rears from a 94+ teg or 92-95 civic ex sedan, and fronts from a 94+ teg, 92-95 EX/Si, or del sol Si+.

I know I read it somewhere before, but can't find it anymore...

what would be the ideal setup for cost-effectiveness and overall effectiveness..

Im thinking of getting the ITR rear sway with the bsq kit... i believe its 22mm? (23mm jdm?)... what about the front?

try this....
the usdm civic si/ex front swaybar is only a 19mm. I have the 21mm
jdm eg6 front swaybar for sale if anyone is ready to buy it. I have had
both the 21mm and the 23mm jdm gsr fronts on my 92cx and the 21mm
is in my opinion better. I tried putting on the CTR/SI front swaybar but the
control ams did not fit. I think that I could have made them work with some
custom modifications but I sold it instead. I am working on my rear setup now.
Overall I think that a front swaybar would be a great upgrade and that you will
be very happy with it.

19mm would be even better, more rotation and less chance of understeer..

Sway bars are DEFINATELY worth it. They are the only way that you would be able to eliminate body roll. UNLESS you get stiffer springs. However stiffer springs would also give you a much harsher ride when you are just driving around town.

You may also need the front shock wishbones if you use the 99/00 si setup. I know that you definately need it if you are going with the si setup on an ek.
