Default 1998 Civic CX hatch w/Apexi WS cat-back and Suspension Tech. rear sway???

I'm almost ready to purchase an Apexi WS cat-back for my 1998 hatch however I'm worried about clearance issues with my rear Suspension Techniques sway bar. Anyone have any experience with this set-up?

Yes I want a quiet non-buzzy exhaust.

I am interested in this too. I have the WS2 exhaust but would like to know if it gets in the way of a sway.

I didnt forget about you, I have the pics, will post them up tonight.

I did find a thread somewhere about someone using a WS and rear sway and said it worked fine. I had it on my comp and left it up, came back and my comp was turned off ::

Ill look for that thread again too.

Ok got some pics here. I think I got enough view of what you need. This is pretty much stock 96 coupe w/ A'Pexi WS2 exhaust.







Just for reference here is a what looks to be stock (for our purposed, susp parts etc) 6th gen Civic w/ what looks to be stock exhaust and a OEM SiR (for them, Canadian) rear sway (13mm if I remember right). Not sure if this pic is working right.



Ok now the last thing, found this thread, not too much info but someone saying it fit on his 92 coupe.

Hope some of this mess helps. Let me know if you install the WS2 on yours w/ the rear sway on there still so I will know for sure if it will work on mine.

Thanks sooooo much for taking those pics, it will definitely fit. There is tons of clearance, just looking at it. Awesome!!! My next order will be lined up for an Apexi WS....
