Default H22 EF CRX sway bar fitment issues?

As the title says, I am wondering if anyone knows of any sway bar fitment issues with this swap. I was thinking of goign with a suspension techniques front and rear sway bar package.

Also are aftermarket sway bars thicker or just stronger material? better mounting?

Aftermarket sway bars, are thicker and with that are a bit stronger also believe they use a polyurethane insert bushing as well...The weak point I think is the bracket that holds the bushing into place it's thin and is known to break...I don't for see any problems running the aftermarket sway bars...I have a h22 crx...

Thanks for the reply

I was going to go with the suspension techniques set below. Is it more for cornering? What difference did it make to your CRX?

I haven't purchased a set yet...I will tho and make my own bracket make it thicker so it wont break...only suspension mods I run are my own 3 pt Front Upper Strut Bar, 4 pt Rear Upper and Rear Lower 2pt... AGX adjustable shocks on Skunk2 coilovers...

I hear of h22 CRX owners just runnng a front sway bar, is it not worth me forking out for both?

Please give me some pros/cons

Im fitting an energy suspension bush kit to my CRX it has the sway bar bushings to go on the stock sway bars so that should suffice for now. Have any of you done the same? If so have you run with stock bushings and P/U?
