You will need to drill holes for it. What kind of reinforcement kit are you using?

You can get some rear gsr LCA's. Since the sway is from that car, those control arms have the holes made for that sway. Then a Beaks kit for the bolts and brakets would work nice. Unless you feel crazy and wanna just drill the holes you can!

You'll need Civic EX Sedan or Integra LCAs.

Stock 92-95 Si/EX front swaybar is nice. So is the GSR. Pretty sure your LCAs won't have the holes in front, either.

Front Swaybar Size
ex/si: 19mm
eg6: 21mm
gsr: 24mm

Rear Swaybar Size
ex/si: 14mm
eg6: 14mm
gsr: 14mm

Front Swaybar
If you are putting a front swaybar on any 92-95 civic (excluding ex/si)
you will need lower conrol arms from a integra, del sol, or ex/si civic.

Rear Swaybar
If you are putting a rear swaybar on any 92-95 civic (excluding 4dr ex)
you will need rear control arms from a integra, del sol, or a 4dr ex.

Beaks Kit
You do not need the beaks kit for the 14mm rear swaybars because they
should have the brackets on them that were made for the indents in your
frame. The type r had a flat rear frame, this is why you need the beaks kit.

Correct. This is a 13mm LS rear.

Are you positive? So, the gsr and ls are different?

Anyways, I am wondering if you could use that bracket from the ls/gsr
on the ITR bar? It looks better than the beaks kit and could
be cheaper now that the beaks kit is $60.

I am FAIRLY positive that the non-GSR bars are 13mm.

I wouldn't use this bracket for an ITR bar for the simple fact that a 22mm bar puts a *LOT* more stress on the subframe than a 13/14mm bar.

Comptech has the best solution out there, by far.

I dont think that the beaks kit would be any better than the
honda bracket. I just dont like spending money when I dont
have to. Whats the comptech setup? Post a link or pic.
