Best front/rear sway bar combo on my EG?
Hey, i have a '95 CX hatchback on Tein HAs off a type R. I am using the ITR rear control arms.
Now i have the following sway bars.
Rear:
'00 GSR sway bar
Front:
'00 GSR sway bar
'95 Civic EX sway bar.
I haven't put them in yet, however i am wondering what will give me a better balance...
Theoretically i am thinking the rear GSR sway bar would work better with a EX sway bar up front.
If i have the GSR rear with the GSR front sway bar, i believe the car will still have oversteer since that would replicate a stock setup on a GSR, except it will be on my EG. So with a smaller bar up front (EX sway bar) and the GSR in the back, it would balance it out a bit better?
Yes/No/Suggestions.

What are you doing with the car? If it's just street driven, you're not going to really notice the difference; unless you're trying to be a track star on the streets.
No way your getting oversteer with a GSR bar, sorry man. I have Buddy Club coilovers (10K/7K) with 24mm front and 23mm rear sway bar and it will not oversteer still unless i'm completely off the gas mid turn and turning sharp.
scrap the GSR and go ITR rear sway, but with a subframe reinforcement kit.

Depends what you want out of your car. Personally for street use go with the GSR bars. Use the extra cash you'll save from not having to reinforce your rear on something else.

That's because you have a large bar and higher springrates up front (which is similar to a stock setup). Depending on your rates, you can get rotation with a small bar.
