Default sway bar for 92 cx

Im looking for a front sway bar to put on my 92 civic cx which dident come with one, So im just wondering what will I need? rite now im looking at a j spec gsr sway bar and also comes with lower control arms and the brackets, its still attached to the front cross member. Now if i were to put this on my civic will it just bolt up? or do i need other parts?

You need integra lca's and the swaybar and endlinks. the subframe has mounts for the swaybar already.

You can use a typer R or GSR on the fron I think they are 25mm 22mm respectively, The rear you can use the GSR (13mm), and those options are a direct bolt. I got my GSR front and rear for $80 shipped with endlinks.

You're getting everything you need, but new bushings wouldn't be a bad idea. You'll just need to swap the lower control arms in the front, drop your exhaust and shift linkage and bolt it in. Back when I was looking to upgrade, I was reading and some people were saying the car handles better without since the front bar causes understeer. I have only driven with a front bar and no rear, so I have nothing to compare to. Do some more reading in the suspension section of this site.

The OP didn't say anything about rear swaybars. All I have to add is that 96-00s are more prone to rear subrame tearout with exceptionally stiff bars, such as the ITR bar. That's according to research I've done though. Also, the ITR bar is cheaper than many aftermarkets, and a used one will look just as nice with a quick coat of black epoxy paint. The stuff may say it's for appliances, but it's awesome. Just follow the directions or it turns out like ****.
