i was doing some work on my new 90 civic dx hatch that i just bought today and was wondering why IT has a front sway bar and powering steering and my 93 dx hatch doesnt?? seems wierd, i mean i dont want ps on my 93 anyways but i would of liked to have a front sway bar. the 90 also has some honda rims on it ive never seen before.

 

dont 90 civics come with front sway bars anyways? are you sure u arent talking about a strut tower bar?

 

any pics?

 

No power steering on any EF's...

uhhhhh. mine has power steering.

i think you all are misunderstanding what im saying.

my 90 civic dx hatch has:
-power steering
-front sway bar

my 93 civic hatch has NO power steering or sway bar (not that i want it to have power steering)

 

pics......por favor

 

i have never seen or heard of any 88-91 civic with power steering in my life. My post was not mistaken.


The only Ef without a front sway is the crx hf and civic std. Si came front and rear. On Eg only si came with front sway and some 4 doors I think?

Yeah I don't think it even has mounting holes for the endlinks in the control arms. At least my friends 94 cx doesnt have them.

yea i know but damnit honda got cheap with the 92-95 dx's it seems then. had to cut down costs so they excluded the front sway bar when 88-91 dx's have them.

 

I have seen lots of ef civics with power steering. I think the special editions came with them or something. Alot of the sadans have them too. so its not like they don't exist.

My Si came with stock front and rear sway bars

 

Mine has power steering AND a sway bar... of course it's a sedan. And of course, it also now has a rear sway bar.

You're running a GS-R rear bar and no front? Brave man...

why you say that?? this is on my 93 hatch btw.

 

Lots of rear roll stiffness usually causes oversteer, especially on a short car like yours. You don't have a problem with the rear wanting to come around on you?

 

some of the automatic dx hatchs also came with power steering

case in point - CWBETB's 90 DX hatch



the white container with the red cap is the power steering resivoir
