Default sway bars and harshness???

i was wondering....when upgrading sway bars to a stiffer set-up would that make the car ride harsher? im wondering because this is a area of the suspension i havent dove into yet and im looking to install a set of 94-01 integra sway bars on a 93 civic dx. i know that it would make a difference off the fact that the cars doesnt have sway bars stock and also being that its alot lighter than a stock Dc.


im just contemplating going with the stock Dc stuff or upgrading to a stiffer ST set-up, but i just dont want to run into problems with the rear sub-frame.

No, it will ride the same. They become useful as soon as weight transfers from one location to another (eg right turn > left weight transfer)

+1... sway bars affect the sideways transfer of weight and not the up-down motion... I'm going to be doing this swap next... let us know how it works out for you!!!
