Anybody running an ITR rear sway on their Ex?
I have a 96 Civic Ex Coupe, and I was thinking about getting an ITR rear lower sway bar. I would also be getting a Beaks kit to help reinforce the sub-frame. Is there anything else I would need to get to make this work? I heard some people have exhaust clearance issues. I have stock exhaust. Thanks

Is that pretty much the same setup for the 6th generations? Also, would I need the GSR lower control arms to perform this task?

you will need lower control arms from a 99-2000 Civic DOHC Si. The 6th gen and 5th gen lca geometries are different.
The only time you need to use Si LCAs is when you put the Si front sway bar on any of the lower models.

No you don't.

Does replacing the LCA's on my 95 ej have to do with the weakness of them...or the reinforcement kit for the subframe and all it's components? AND IF I DONT REPLACE THEM??

The only reason, there are predrilled holes for the sway bar.
Makes it a lot easier
