Default BWR Rear Subframe and OEM rear sway.

I have a 98 GSR and recently purchased a BWR rear subframe brace. I am having trouble with the OEM rear sway working with the brace, almost like the holes for the sway were drilled incorrectly or something. Anyone else by chance have this issue? Or if you have successfully used this combo, please chime in or even better yet... post some pics. Thanks.

How big of a sway bar? I know of braces that are designed with the ctr/itr bars in mind.
Asr is the same way.

Well no, yea it might be eaiser. But it has been done with a asr.
D brackets are fairly cheep, maybe try driling it out a bit. And go from there?
