if you have a 92-95 civic that did not come with a sway bar (front or rear) chances are you need to replace the LCA.

you can pick up the front and rears LCA's off of any 92-95 civic ex/si models, or any 94-01 integra. oem ones will do fine, unless you like the bling and pick up some aftermarket ones.

im guessing by your sig that you have an EX. Get an 99-00Si sway bar. 13mm. unless you want to go bigger and get a subframe brace.

Err, a bigger sway bar is part of a suspension setup last time I checked.

Sway bars will help the car out noticably. Make sure to get the asr subframe kit so you do not damage your subframe. I believe your lca's will have the extra holes for the sway bar.

I think i was searching the wrong thing.. i was searching at the 92-00 but anyways.. I want the car for partial Track use.. thats the reason why i want the sway bars. Also I dont want the SI one.. if i get the SI one i dont need the Frame brace but if go with the fatty 23mm then i do.. Im jus afraid if i was installing the sway and the endlinks dont connect wit the LCA then im screwed! but yea thanks!

They will as long as you use the 99-00 civic si links or I think ones from a CRV. I am using 99-00 endlinks with mine and its perfect.

god i love this forum! and comments like this

ok the only thing i agree with what you said is the ASR subframe kit


IF i were to put a sway bar on my setup regardless of what i was going to use the car for i would only run on the rear WHY you ask to get rid of understeer!

NOW having said that my honda tec friend cambopheonix56 said "Err, a bigger sway bar is part of a suspension setup last time I checked. "

God were do i start with such a comment sway bars are nothing more then dead weight and a waste of time IF you have a good suspension setup that’s fully adjustable such as function form (sure everyone knows who they are?) you can tune the suspension for your driving style and makes sway bar/anti roll bars useless

The only reason manufacturers put sway bars on cars is to increase under steer for the average a to b driver

i hope you understand what i am trying to say if not i guess i will have to go into a big long winded explanation
