Hey guys i was just woundering what the suspension bar that connects the rear LCA's on an integra (GSR if it matters) is called. I believe its the rear lower tie bar but im not positive. Im just woundering because im trying to finish my suspension (Got rear LCA's, F & R camber kits, Coilovers, etc) and i was considering about buying one of those bars. So if you guys can possibly reccomend one of them for me (not to expensive but of couse good quality) it would be appriciated. Also post some pics of your suspension in the back end (LCA's, coilovers, tie bar, etc.) Thanks!

 

It's a rear swaybar or antiroll bar. Tie bars are just flashy bits that do nothing other than drain your wallet. The Integra Type-R (23mm from the JDM and 22mm from the USDM) bars are an affordable and quality upgrade.

keep in mind if your running any rear sway bigger than 19mm, a rear subframe brace is needed.

 

Honestly, I would not say a subframe brace is needed in most cases. With OEM suspension (springs, bushings) and tires, it's probably not necessary.

Subframe reinforcement is actually more necessary when running stiff sway bars with stock springs than it is with stiffer aftermarket springs. The more roll you have due to soft springs, the greater the role (ha, pun) that the sway bar plays in overall roll stiffness, and the more stress it will put on its mounting points.
