so im gunna keep my four door instead of selling it for a newer car and i was wondering about a rear sway bar. i dont wanna go with a type-r or aftermarket for that matter. my question is wat rear controls do i need to run a stock ls or GSR rear sway bar? i have a couple of bars ive removed from cars and i wanna help the handling a little bit. so far the car has h&r race on gr2's. this is my beater so mods will be minumal

 

If you want to stay with a stock rear sway bar you will need the lower control arms from what ever donor car you choose. try the 94-00 integras and the 95 ex 4 drs and I think the lx of that year

so i do need to replace the trailoring arms not just the control arms?

 

oh dam Sorry man my bad I wasn't thinking you will need the lca not the trailing arm (pays to proof read). Also you will want all the mounting hardware that attaches the sway bar to the sub frame.

 

I'm not sure I can think of a worse combination of suspension components than H&R Race springs, GR2 shocks - inadequate stock replacements - and a stock Civic rear swaybar.

Leave your beater alone if you're not going to do things correctly.

 

ok first of all the car came with that suspension setup theres no real point in changing it right now. eventualy i will change it its just there so why not use it the way it is?. i kno those shcoks and pretty much stock replacemnents. all i asked why for a lil info on the sway bar's not to tell me how f*cked my suspension setup is. surprisingly the car is pretty stiff and i bought the car from a friend who's put 60k on those and they show no signs of being blown. im not saying there gunna last but for now. i just want small upgrades nothing crazy. no motor swaps and bad *** wheels suspension. the big stuff now thats what my DA is for.
