Why would you want a bigger front bar? Did you upgrade your rear bar to a larger size?

yellow mark = just the markings that are on the bar to help with a quick visual...

23mm rear bar = yellow paint mark

I can install either a gsr or type r front sway, which I was going to pair w/ a type r rear sway. If the GSr and type r are the same i wont bother switching mine out.

GSR is smaller in the front. As with the rear.

If you upgrade the front without upgrading the rear, you are increasing your chances of understeering (correct me if I'm wrong). Using the ITR rear bar will correct that and even out the handling.
