yes, yes...i already did a search and found conflicting information.

i know most of you ek-ers have installed itr rear sways. so, all i need to install this bar is si endlinks, brackets (assorted other nuts/bolts), beaks reinforcement, and the bar?

thanks.

1998 ek

 

if this is for an ek then go to the beaks site and get the quick swap kit for the EK and then go to your honda dealer and get 99-00 Si endlinks (2). that should do it

 

exactly what he said, but if your getting the ek quickswap, just get endlinks from Wil, its a lot easier.

 

that is all that u need,and i recommend the beaks kit. I was gonna put a type R rear swaybar on my EK,but i am getting a progress bar instead.

 

how much are they Progress bars and how thick are they? 22mm?

 

whats the website for beakskits?? thanks

WHo's Will? DOes he sell endlinks for cheap?

 

Wil is the beaks product guy. He can set you up by including endlinks in your kit for you. Thats what i'm doing with him currently, kit with endlinks and lca bolts, since i was missing them.

 

does he include the Si endlinks or some other brand? also, does anyone have pics of the ITR sway bar clearance with their muffler and exhaust piping? ive only seen driver side pics of the ITR bar. i took a look at mine the other day and i dont think mine will fit in there. just wanna see how much clearance in each direction i need. thanks!

 

He's including ITR endlinks with my kit, since i'm going to be using ITR LCAs. Check with him though, i bet he can include SI endlinks or ITR...whichever you need. He basically helps you out and you can avoid an extra trip to a dealership.

 

He can include SI endlinks for a lot cheaper than the "stealerships"

i have the ITR bar and kit (as a present), just don't have the endlinks yet (going to order from him soon).

If you are going to get the kit from him, have him include the end links ~80 because online (hondaautomotiveparts.com) its ~80 as well but the dealerships its like 80 a piece.

 

If i get a itr bar for the back, do i also need new lcas if i have a cx?

 

i dont think you need new LCAs. if its an EK then no. not sure on EG

 

It's an ek. Another question, Anyone have a diagram for the front sways?

 

EKs, for ITR rear sway you can utilize your stock LCAs. For front, EX 22mm ( you need EX LCAs) and Si 26mm (you need Si LCAs).

 

would the car be more balanced with matching sway bars? like 22mm ITR in rear with 22mm EX in front? or is it better to have a beefier sway bar in the front like with the Si/ITR (26mm Si and 22mm ITR) combo?

EDIT: what exhausts are you guys with EKs and ITR rear sway bars running? i have custom piping and a HKS Hiper muffler and i do not think a ITR sway bar is going to fit. it looks like it will hit the piping. let me know. pics would be nice if you got them. thanks!

If you like more over steer than understeer, most people (wanting to go OEM) would say get an EX sway. But if you want more Nuetral, I'd say get Si because Understeer doesn't bother me. ALSO with the beefier bar, you MAY get a little more understeer, but the beefier bar also helps in Stability.

All depends on what you want, but MOST ( i think ) would say get the SI front and ITR rear for one of the greatest OEM suspensions around.

 

not to be a lame noob but can you explain the whole understeer and oversteer concepts? the nuetral one too. thanks!

 

errr that'll take a whiel to explain..maybe u can IM or WAIT for Tonyxcom to explain that, I'm sure he would love too....

Eddie - who's sorry cause he has to go to his bro's house now.

 

will the beaks kit work with gsr rear disc conversion on an ek? or will it need different endlinks

 

If I put a ITR rear sway on my 00' Si, what kinda difference could I expect, more or less oversteer or neutral????
Anybody have a Si with itr rear sway??

 

less understeer than you already have. get it. great mod.

 

that rear disc doesn't conflict w/ that gsr rear disc because the rear disc conv utilizes stock LCAs, which is what the beaks kit utilizes as well.
