I'm debating on whether or not to run the EX bar or Integra with an ITR rear. Correct me but the EX+ITR will yield more oversteer thus allowing the rear to rotate more. I autocross occasionally and am trying to improve my crappy handling on my DX. BTW I have a 94 Coupe with koni/neuspeed and Azenis right now. I think I'm going to get the Beak's kit with SRR LCAs in the rear and I guess EX lcas in the front (unless someone makes aftermarket ones so I can attach a bar) with some front bar.

 

i would suggest gettin a bigger front bar.
my hatch got tail happy on the freeways......when i installed a rear sway bar.
so i upgraded my front also.

Not. Autocross front wheel drivers need little to no bar up front.
That's vague, and some will argue.
But this is coming from a hatchback owner with no front bar and a 22mm rear.
A big front bar will lift the inside tire. Open diff and wheel lift? Not fast.

 

I thought I read somewhere on here before about the rear not wanting to rotate with an Integra front and ITR rear. Maybe I could help it out with alignment? I don't know **** about suspensions, I just know how to drive so I don't hit the cones.

 

What about for road course racing? I am planning to run an ITR rear bar and Zeal Superfunction coilovers- would an Si/Ex (are they the same) be beneficial?

Thanks
Ben

Does the car oversteer alot with no front bar? The only reason I'd run a small EX(14mm I think) bars is for daily driving to keep the *** end from getting squirrily.

 

Beaks kit is a must!
Here was my install: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=408156

I'm selling the car, so I have the Beaks brakets for sale.
Also some SPC LCA's here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=508345

I had the EX-ITR setup and was very happy with the handling. I had a GSR front sway and debated on installing it, but that would have hurt my rotation.

 

depends what you are doing...

auto-x : id run a 22m itr rear sway bar, thats it. more rotation is always better...

hpde/road course crap : 21 mm front civic si bar, itr rear 22mm..

you could ask Doctor Cortez how he likes his setup, he has it on his soon to be ECHC car, and he tracks his car like a *****..

How shakey is just the ITR rear bar? I don't want to be driving the interstate, afraid my *** was going to kick out in the wet. This is an auto-x/daily driver. I'm really not that competitive, I just like to go and have fun.

 

It add's stability while driving on the freeway IMO - only way you can mess up is lift throttling in a turn...

just get out on the auto-x course and learn to control it [gas pedal down, countersteer]..

I personally use the GSR front sway bar + ITR rear, nothing even close to scary happening yet. I think you'll be fine...

 

I think I'll get the SRR lca with the beaks ITR kit and see how I like it. I'm trying to avoid the fronts until I do a motor swap so I only have to bust the ball joints once.
