So i searched and i see that i will need. The ITR rear sway bar, beaks reinforcement kit. What else will i need? Do i need some aftermarket LCA's? Are there any other miscellanious parts? How much have any of you payed for this setup on your 96-98 ex's?

 

You should need the ITR LCA's but I am not 100% sure about that..

 

Nope on the rear u can use the beaks kit or make some bracket and mount the bar and just drill a hole in the arms and ur done. i have one on my 99 EL which is a 99 civic lol ill have pics of it this weekend.

 

damn so i gotta drill holes in my stock lca's? I think i'll just buy some new ones.

 

NOPE! you do NOT need to drill holes in your LCA. All USDM civics from 96-00 come with the holes already in the LCAS! The ITR LCAs wont even fit! All you need is the sway bar, D brackets and bushings, beaks kit, and endlinks from a 99-00 Civic SI. Rick

 

Thanks! Thats what i thought, but i wasn't completely sure. how much do you think all of this will cost me? I know the beaks kit is like 65 and i think the sway bar should cost around 55 right? How much for the rest?

 

AH sorry the civic's here have no holes in them. U are going to have to get the ends of the sway bar filled with metal and welded then drill them out cause the hole is too big. On my car i had a rear bar on it from factory the ACURA 1.6EL its the same size as the GSR. Now i have the ITR rear and its awsome in the rain u can drift it easy. Good luck ill find the link for the post on CLUBSI

 

Here is a pic of the CTR bar on civic same thing the end links are same Im lookin for the post of the ITR rear bar install how to on EK

My 96 Civic EX had the marks where the holes should be, but I had to drill through them to put my sway bar on.

 

can anybody verify this? Will i need to drill holes or not?

 

might want to just get under your car and look. my 99 ex already had holes drilled.

What is those purple bars?

 

Those are LCA's.

 

I have a 96 hatch and i plan on putting the ITR rear sway also. Will i also need to get the 99 Si endlinks? how much do those run? i already know that i will need the Beaks kit. What other nick nacks will i need to get it running and how much will it run??

 

yea u need the 99-00 endlinks..they run for a lot at the dealers...i suggest u find a local junkyard that has them. I found them for $25. The other nick nack u should get is a lower tie bar...i like the spoon or benen one...cost around 110-130 bucks

 

for the beaks kit u will need to drill two holes where the stock holes are on the frame itself, not on the control arm. The holes on the control arm are already pre-drilled.

there are two holes on the frame already where u can put a stock si sway bar on with no drilling needed but u have to drill one hole on each side (above the stock holes location) to mount the beaks kit.

LOL. I sound like a redneck.

What kind of LCA's are they? Aftermarket?

 

SRR and Yes

 

I installed an ITR rear swaybar last weekend on my 99 EK (usdm). My LCA's had the holes for the endlinks.

Parts I had to buy-

ITR rear bar
ITR D-brackets and bushings
99-00 Si rear endlinks
BEAKS kit

If you use the BEAKS kit on an EK, you will have to drill 2 holes in your rear sub-frame. It's not a big deal, and the instructions tell you how to locate and mark the positions to drill.

 

sweet! how much did everything cost you? Are you pleased with your handling after installing it?

 

hey what plates are those thats holding the rear sway bar to yourcar. Who madde them

 

My links are off the 94 626 fronts same as civic rears but here they are half the price. GA2A-34-170A , GA2A-34-150A mazda part numbers

 

Wow thats the first I have heard of that! Thanks! Rick

 

so they are the same thing as the si endlinks?

 

?
