i'm thinking you're talking about an endlink: dealership or online, around 15 bucks.

aftermarket ones would cost more, i think hotchkis makes some, as well as some guy on 7thgencivic.com named Grey who fabricates his own and sells them.

yeh i'd really love to have the after market sway bar links. my suspension is really stiff. it's stiffer than the stock wrx. almost like the sti. do u know how i can contact grey without signing up to the 7thgen website?

I have another question, on the rear sway bar they give u two holes. explain that to me.

i'm guessing maybe it's for the EP3 or DC5 cars, since their sway bars fit EM2/ES1/ES2 as well...

if the holes aren't enclosed (like embedded together) then maybe it's for space so you can get the bar on without bending your endlink around too much...

icic well i put it in the hole farthest out but the bar is really close to the arm. so i could possibly put it in the second on pulling my bar further from my arm. iunno.
