what is the difference in the size of the mm and has anyone switched over from GS/LS to type R? can you really feel the difference? is it worth the extra money?

 

I swapped from my gsr to a type r and i noticed a HUGE different.

I'm not sure about the specs of the ls/gs sway bars, but I know the GSR is atleast as good, or better, so if it made a huge different to me, it will to you as well.

I hope that helps at least a little.

 

If your talking about the rear sway bar, I believe the gs/rs is 13mm, gsr is 14mm, and the type r is 22mm. I also know that the front sway bar for the gsr is 26mm.

 

so I have a gs, is there anything I need to install type R sway bars?

 

rear subframe reinforcement kit. there are dozens of threads covering this, please search the archives.

and yes, this is probably the best bang for buck mod for your car.

 

Yea theres a few reenforcement kits out there. If you dont use one you will tear your subframe. Theres an ASR, beaks, and bsq that I know of.

 

so if I put in just the type R rear sway bar, I will end up tearing out the subframe? I got a hold of the sway bar aleardy, so does anyone sell just the subframe? What about the front? Is anything else required to get that installed? Is there a difference between the JDM and USDM?

 

usdm 22mm jdm 23mm for the rear. u have to have a subframe kit or it won't fit without modification of stock sub frame. and stock ls/gs/rs is only 12mm. u will feel a huge difference in handling if u take u car on hard turns. as for the front jdm type r is 25mm and u will need gsr/type r front end links. the ls/gs/rs end links will not work. if i am forgettign something ill come back a post again. hope this helps u out

 

rs,gs,ls- fronts 22mm rears 12mm
GSR- fronts 24mm rear 14
USDM ITR fronts 24mm rear 22
JDM ITR 96-97 fronts 24mm rear 22
JDM ITR 98+ fronts 25mm rear 23mm
honestly dont worry about the jdm 25mm front though
