Integra front lower LCAs will fit. Race tires will make a world of a difference. Good luck on your build!

BTW: I have a pair of integra front lower lcas if you need some. And a 24mm front sway with bushing/brackets/endlinks.

the d2's are a bit of a waste, nothing more than bulk product/non performance item, cheaply made, etc.. koni/gc, so you can tune your setup if your "race" geared

might wanna ditch the front, and just get some track time. What are you going to be racing.. or do you just want a race quality setup for the street..

most people don't run a front sway, depends on what you like on the track thow, every setup is diffrent, as far as d2.. i wouldn't trust much track time with them. d2 isn't an actual tunner company, there shocks are just bulk made .tw crap. I would stick with something you can tune, and trust such as koni/gc

There is nothing wrong with running a front swaybar; I've seen just as many racecars with the front sway than without, and there can be arguments made for both. Race with and without it, and see which you prefer, because in the end the setup should suit the driver, not the driver suiting the setup.
