Honda in Sweden want the partnr...

I've heard that you need the JDM sway bar if you go with a
race header... True or False?

There has been problems with Spoon's header in Europe.

Spoon and any other Japanese manufacturers Headers were designed around the Japanese market EP3 (Unless otherwise noted)
The JDM Versions of the DC5 and EP3 use a different sway bar than that used in the USA and Europe (I'll bet that all other countries use the same as the US and Europe, and that Japan is the only one using their own)

So if you intend to use one of those headers you also need to Order a JDM front Sway Bar.

unfortunately, the front lower control arms of the US RSX and Civic EP3 are also different from the JDM version.

consequently, the JDM front swaybars do not fit the US front LCA as the endlink position is different.

you will have to either order the JDM LCAs or modify a JDM front swaybar.

Seems like i should give up the JDM header idea and
go for USDM instead... Easier.
