I would like to know what sway bar and shock absorber is the most balanced (livable) for a '91 CRX Si.


Thanks

 

its all relative and subjective.

what are you comparing to? just stock?

 

Yes I am just comparing to stock. I want that will give better performance but that will not make the car difficult for everyday use.

Thanks

 

tokico illuminas, eibach prokits or stock Si springs, rear 22mm swaybar and front stock 18mm swaybar or 19mm sedan. thats my setup. its great.

 

What is the cost of the 4 shocks and what brand of sway bar are you using ?


Thanks

 

there someone selling illuminas on ebay for crx for under $350. amazing deal.

i have a mugen 22mm, direct fit. good luck finding another one. but before that i was using something like that of a suspension techniques bar, which is also 22mm. comes with its own bracketry. i think its only $130ish from summit racing. theres several other swaybar makers, neuspeed, intrax, progress, tanabe, and so on.

 

How come you did not get a bigger from sway bar?
You want the oversteer is that it?

 

i felt it could use a bit more front sway than stock, so thats why i used the 19mm sedan front bar. but the aftermarket 22mm bars are too big, way too stiff. takes too much away from the independent suspension characteristics. i had a 22mm suspension techniques bar, never installed it, but when i saw how big and heavy it was i knew it was just too big. so i sold it back to someone else. and the sedan bar is cheap from the junkyard anyway. so it was an experiment, i liked it.

 

How much thicker (when compared to the regular Si one) is the sedan front sway bar?
Also are all the aftermarket one the same thickness?

 

18mm vs 19mm. i can feel the difference. all the aftermarket ones are 22mm. the only other option is a DA integra 23mm HOLLOW front bar that fits fine. it has a similar feel to the 19mm because its hollow.

 

What's the size of the rear one? aftermarket vs stock Si

 

so how does the 22mm front sway bar feel, does it handle goood is it too stiff, or what
