suspension techniques is pretty common.

although, id be interested in seeing a tanabe rear swaybar.

you only need a rear bar anyway. dont get a new front one.

First thing I do anymore, is put an ST bar, on every EF I buy. Great mod. Never seen the Mugen one, but probally because you have to fly to Japan to find one.

Sweet is it adjustable? Do you have any pics? It sounds intrigueing although a deal like that will probally never come around.

&lt;--- Has no rear sway bar and freaks DrDisco69 (Mike) out everytime we go out on track and I start tossing the car around.

Guess I will need to invest into a sway bar for the CRX.

Interesting Mugen rear sway bar....I was think about getting a big 32mm solid front bar for the CRX.

not adjustable. those adjustments at the end of the ST bar are pretty worthless actually. if you do the math, its not changing it more than 5% if i recall correctly.

just imagine a 22mm stock bar. thats pretty much what it is.

Myself for what i've been wanting ST seems to be best for all around and bang for buck.

I'm sure mugens are great.

from what i see, the ST rear swaybar made for the DA integra is a direct fit for them. some pl have fit DA integra rear swaybars on their EF chassis. that is an option for better fitment. however, its 19mm, not 22mm. still better than stock 14.4mm.

neuspeed rear bar alone costs $333. looks like it comes with brackets to fit like later models on the subframe. i personally dont like mounting the swaybar like that.

Yeah but you also have and Si. Which is great cause you can do exactly what you did. However I would have found a HF front sway instead. People owning the lower model CRXs have to get something "like" ST to add to the car so they can even have rear sway.

I would have to think the Beefy 1/4" think ST mounts are better than the chincy stock mounts though. Do all of the others come with new mount brackets? I dunno I like my STs, but I'm open for options, I gotta get one for my CRX soon.

i dont have a problem with the stock brackets.

its not hard to mimic a new angle bracket like ST if i thought i needed it.

It clears my Thermal (classic) just fine. But if you need just a tad bit more clearance, you can add a spacer bar between the ST mount bracket and the chassis.
