02 civic front sway upgrade
since i just ordered a ITR 22mm rear sway for my 02 EM2 should i bother with upgrading my 24.5mm front sway with like a progress or H&R bar or should i leave it alone ?

Leave it alone as it is already large enough. Honda changed the later cars to a smaller front swaybar and I personally think they (the 04+) handle better in stock trim with the smaller bar. They roll a little more, but the car is more eager to rotate.

Like todd00 said, leave it alone or get a smaller bar to reduce understeer. You can get the 03+ front bar (16.9mm i think) or get a 02 Sedan front bar (22mm). I have an 02 sedan with the RSX 19mm rear sway and cornering is decent.
