Eibach Suspension
Does anybody have any experience with the Eibach suspension system for the DC2 Integra??? I'm not talking lowering springs, I want to know about their coil over set-ups and sway bars... Also, what is the big difference between mono-tube and conventional set-ups??? What is better for the street??? I know mono-tubes are better for performance set-ups, but are they better on the street as well???
Their sway bars would be a big expensive mistake... 26mm in the front as opposed to your current 24mm bar...and 17mm in the back? No one loves Eibach like I do, but I'd never buy their sway bars. I'm currently running a 98 spec ITR bar in the front (25mm) and USDM ITR rear bar (22mm) Fantastic setup, neutral and responsive.
I've never driven either their coil over setups, but I'd be worried to buy them. Is this DC2 strictly track driven or something???

Too many other proven options in that price range and even lower man. AMR FTW if your going to spend 1100+
Just my $.02

Alright, thanks a lot man. I was just wondering because I work at a shop that is a supplier of Eibach and I could get a nice price on their components. But if they aren't worth the money, I'll stay away from them. The DC2 is mostly street driven.

The off-the-shelf sway bars from Eibach were designed well before the Integra Type R was even sold and the bar sizes were relatively conservative for street use. The 17mm rear bar is a great upgrade if you do not want to get a subframe brace. I used this on my eg before it became a dedicated track car.
Eibach has started to make more track oriented parts including a 25mm adjustable rear sway bar as well as mono-tube 2 way coilovers built in house. I'm using both on my car now and they're amazing!

To the OP, mono-tube coilovers are better for all around performance and longevity due to being able to use a larger piston diameter.

The Integra bars were actually R&D'd using my GSR, which was in 1996. They were/are very conservative. Not too many people were running a big rear bar back then. Bar production was moved from Germany to our Corona office a couple years ago. Now our employees, who are enthusiasts, are more involved in what is being manufactured in regard to heights, sizing, etc. It's an exciting time at Eibach.
Like Tony mentioned, we have some new stuff that is amazing. Im running our R2 coilovers on my ITR and love them.

So I ordered the 25mm rear sway bar kit from JHPUSA. It showed up the other day, real nice. Came with the bar, ES bushings, brackets, bolts/washer, and adjustable endlinks. It also came with what appears to two fabricated mounting brackets. I am installing this bar in place of my USDM ITR rear bar, I already have a ASR subframe brace. The kit came with no instructions, but I went ahead and installed the bar. Everything seems fine. My question is was I supposed to use the two mounting plates supplies with the kit, or are those only for people who dont have the subframe brace installed? I went ahead and mounted the plates between the ASR brace and the bushing brackets.

I know this post is from a few years back, but are there updated options? Went to the JHPUSA URL and it is no longer in service.
Thanks.
Here are good links.

I have been using both of these on my EG for a few years now and love them. I have used a handful of different setups on my car and prefer these. The 3-way adjustable bar is great because you can tune the bar to your needs.
The softest setting is a bump up from the JDM 23mm rear bar and the highest setting is close to the ASR 32mm bar. Most guys use the middle setting with good results.
There are quite a few track guys here in SoCal that are using this bar and the R2's.
