Default Eibach vs ITR swaybars

Eibach has anti-roll bar kits for 400 bucks, Front-27mm, Rear-21mm. Bolt on, no mods required. Is it worth the money to have the front one too? Or does the rear ITR tighten it up enough to handle really well?

Dude, no... the GSR and the Type R DO NOT have the same strut bar. The GSR bar really isn't even a strut bar, it's more of a body roll brace. It doesn't attached to the top of the stuts thmselves, it just bolts on to the sheet metal beside them. The Type R bar is a real strut bar, it goes from strut to strut. Plus it's solid, not hollow like the GSR bar. And as for whether you should get the Type R or the Eibach, go with the Type R.

well you can get everything for the ITR sway bar for 100 dollars, and you figure 200 a pop for the eibach ones, i say save the money and spend it elsewhere, maybe on some strut bars

I think they're talking about sway bars, not strut stabilizer bars.

Still so, even the Type R strut bar isnt solid...

Just get the ITR rear and leave the front alone.

id go with the ITR sway bar and then get a tie bar. you can get the comptech set for like 400. your front should be OK. you could even get a 26mm rear from mugen. for under 400. but that might be too much.

I would get the ITR rear sway bar (22mm).

Go http://www.geocities.com/bretq/swaybar_install.html for install instructions & part numbers to order.
