I have a question for those who know and have the experience with integra sway bars/ brakes. ( as I don't ) - I have a 1999 DB6 Integra Ti ( 1600cc sohc model ) which is lowered with springs and is in desperate need of better shocks, sway bars and better brakes.
Issue is, there seems to be no already existing sway bars, and i'm not sure what i'll need to do if I buy or find some type R sways or aftermarket. Do I need to change my control arms, include adapters or do any drilling?
I've never installed sway bars.
My hub is 4x100. What kind of brakes, pads, swaybars and shocks would you people suggest to run. I've heard using brakes from other Hondas, etc . I'm curious to hear what other people have done to upgrade brakes and brake pads ( suggested brands, etc. ) for DB model. All i'm after is better handling and brakes. This is just my daily car I don't race or track it.
This is my first thread btw. I love Hondas and I've owned a handful, just never really did any overly technical upgrades on them..
Here's a pic of my 1999 DB6 lowered on Yokohama Kreutzer Series wheels.

brakes Pads look up hawks brake pads
sway bar is up to you idk your model
i have progress 22mm sway bar on my rear
stock ex seat bar front
shocks I’m a ground control koni type of guy with custom rates that’s me
it works wonders so much that I have 4 sets of them for every one of my cars (lawl)
keep in mind when buying shocks/ coilovers
the spring rates and also if you plan on adding rear sway bars they affect spring rates driving feel
idk too much other than reading adding sway bar rear changes spring rate geometry
your brakes if your fronts are 10.2” rotor you’re setup is fine
just buy hawk brake pads front and rear
and a quality fair price rotor blanks prefered I read unconfirmed drilled slotted can cause stress cracks
I hope still on Time to help:
You MUST take a look to ErickTheCarGuy or ETCG1 YouTubes; yesterday March 19th, shows REAL comparisson of both: GSR and Type R Integras.
You'll see Brakes and Sway Bars differencesm and many other You'll love
Also MUST see PirateGarage YouTubes when changing eBay EM1 Brakes,to Type R before going to 5 lug: there i took the Idea of changing my Wire Sway Bar..
I will instral on my ES1 that 17mm RSX Sway Bar
I've just installed Tokico (gray) on Front and Bilstein (yellow) on Rear; drives like Train on Rails, even SSprings are OEM
Best Regards
