Default Sway bars on a CX? There aren't any from the factory...

I have a 1993 CX, and I would like to get some sway bars. I have heard I can use the GSR bars, and that Eibach makes bars. However, I don't have any bars stock, so are there mounting points already there? What are my options? TIA

Can I mount stock bars (i.e. GSR bars)?

i have a cx hb with itr 22mm rear bar and gsr front.

you need lower control arms from an integra and rear subframe brackets from a del sol, and energy suspension d brackets size 7/8" for the 22mm bar.

i say go with 22mm bar in the rear it will make a huge diference,and its only like 80bucks brand new. not to sure if you will notice gsr bar.

Import Auto Salvage sells the whole rear sway-bar kit from a GSR for a really good price (click here). They normally sell the 24mm front kit for $10 more on eBay, and they usually have them in stock (so ask about it if you contact them). Shipping is cheap & fast too. They also have the best customer service I've ever seen. I received a bent LCA, and they shipped me a new one with no questions asked (they guarantee all their parts). Check their website, and e-mail Larry Jr., and he will get you what you need.

Will I notice a difference with the GSR bar? Also, if I get this kit, will I be able to use any bar that fits Integras?

I was about to purchase from that site, but the link you gave me for the GSR sway bar was listed as a DC2 sway bar....is the GSR the same as the stock Integra sway bar?
