I wanted to buy a sway bar for my 98 4dr civic. I was thinking about a sk2 swaybar. Right now for suspension i have a sk2 front uppper bar and a lower tie bar.

skunk will need some reinforcement.

SRK-EK
Developed with the same theory as the proven SRK-EG, Beaks Products' SRK-EK (subframe reinforcement kit) minimizes the chance of subframe "tear-out" often experienced with oversized anti-sway bar upgrades. Due to the thin construction of the subframe and insufficient factory reinforcements, the subframe sheet metal shears under extreme twisting of the anti-sway bar. The results are severe damage and expensive repairs. The SRK-EK reinforces the subframe from both inside and outside, distributing forces over a greater area of contact. This reduces the shear stress and effectively prevents sheet metal failures.

im using the skunk2... no tears so far... but then again i just daily drive it... i dont road race it.

 

It says on the site that the SRK-EK only works for the 99-00 models i don't know if it will work on a 98.

I run the Progress rear anti-sway bar on my '97 EX sedan. Awesome quality and NO subframe rippage in two years. Check out my page for pics. Very cheap, too ... I paid like $200 out the door for mine. http://www.progressauto.com

it works, i'm running the beaks kit on my 97 ek. one of the best suspension mods that i have done

 

I will the the SRR set up soon Check the "best buy" forum for pics and info.

 

I am willing to sell my skunk2 bar if you are intersted! Rick

 

Comptech adjustable swaybar tie bar combo. Best money I ever spent

 

im using a si sway bar on my ek, it works fine. it is a little one but non the less does make a big difference

 

I'm using the ITR bar with the Beaks kit on my 96 hatch. I love it!

 

I have a Suspension Techniques Swaybar/Tie bar combo sittting to be put on soon i hope.
Is any one else running with one?

 

.
thers my itr sway with beaks srk , this is on my 99 hatchie , i recomend this to anybody!!!!! you need subframe reinforcement on anything 19mm or over in my opinion , ive seen a gsr sway tear out on a 98 civic coupe. get the beaks kit , the full kit is cheaper than progress , better too , better than skunk , comptechs is awsome but expensive , and the endlinks are crap

 

I have the lower tie bar from sk2 on right now. Can i just put a new lower control arm and then the kit with an itr sway bar? Do i need better springs struts?

I had the ST rear sway only. I used it on my 00 Civic for about 2 years, no issues at all, and when I removed it, no signs of damage or impending tear out. I was pretty happy with it. Only thing bad I can say, is that it did get rusty on me, I'm not sure how good the quality of finish/paint on the bars is.

 

I had a 26mm ctr/si front sway bar and a JDM ITR (23mm) rear bar.

One of the best mods ever, next to real coilovers.

 

26mm(si) front
comptech rear
wouldn't want anything else

 

stock SI bars now...hoping to get the ITR rear w/ beaks kit.

 

Is the itr only 1 mm bigger than the sk2? And how much did you pay for your itr?

 

i have itr front and rear upper bars and benen lower tie bars

I have it on my car.. along with an SI front sway. No problems with tearing or anything.. installing is a bitch though! The bolts the kit comes with aren't tapered like the OEM Honda ones, so it'll be a lot of fumbling around until it's in.

 

Si sway bar!

 

I have a Comptech 22mm rear sway without the tie bar, but with Beaks kit. Works well.
