Default swaybar=oversteer + tearing?

guys i have a 98 civic hatch DX and i am thinking of geting ASR Subframe brace with Type R 22mm sway bar, along with blox endlink and OEM bushing. I DONT HAVE FRONT Sway bar so will this make the car OverSTEER alot? and also will it cause tear on the chassis?

Btw i have Buddy Club Coilover (8k front 6k rear i think)

you don't seem to know what the purpose of a rear sway bar is. if you don't know what your doing with it, youll most likely end up spinning out and hurting yourself or even someone else.

Don't know if the change is radical, but you will probably have more oversteer. I think more than just a bit.

You really need to get a front sway bar on the car before you worry about putting a 22mm rear sway bar on the car. You are going to really upset the balance on the car and cause handling issues not limited to oversteer

ive got a ITR 22mm rear sway and no front sway on my 97' Hatch.

but i also did lots of research before actually going in for the purchase.

the handling changes quite a bit, and you have to readjust your driving habits (ie. braking around a corner = no no) etc.

but the OP clearly has no idea what the use of a rear sway is for, nor does he know what oversteer is or what causes it.

nah i know the swarbar will cause oversteer, but i was planning to do the rear first since my bushing are bad and so might as well do the rear in 1 shot. I'll do the front too to balance it out, prolly a Si front sway bar or so. But yea i asked cuz i want to know if it will be really bad on the oversteer
