That's a very decent price on the rear EP3/CTR swaybar.

Are you using the OEM Si bar on the front, or the smaller Type S bar?

I have the Type S bars, front and rear, and I'm thinking that maybe I'd want to go back to the bigger Si bar on the front if I put the CTR on the back.

OEM Si bar on front, EP3R bar on the back. Car is pretty dang flat in the turns with just a set of H&R's on the oem shocks.

Thanks, Todd. That's the direction I thought I wanted to go, but I know the lunatics like Jack would want me to keep the little bar up front.

Just wanted some reassurance.

You don't get too much understeer, then?

I have Mugen suspension. Do you remember what weight H&R springs you have, so I can get a rough idea of the equivalence?

I haven't the slightest idea on the springrate of the H&R specific Ep3 springs. I tried to check, but got no good answer.

If you have the RSX sway on the front, I'd just leave it on there and do the JDM rear bar. I got a lot of corner exit wheelspin with the large bar on the front.

You don't need endlinks--use your oem endlinks. You do need bushings, which Mike said are included. You also use your oem bushing brackets. Easy install.

Well the reason I am asking is because the type S rear sway bar is 19mm, where are the type R rear sway bar is 22mm. So I read on clubrsx that you needed the bushings not the endlinks. I mis-read the information.

Hey Mike, I was wondering if you could tell me the internal diameter measurements of the T1R B-Pipe for the EP3? Also is there free shipping on the B-pipe? That would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jon

Shipping on the B pipe varies depending on area and which car the B pipe is for but on Avg is between $10-20. Being in N Andover you could pick it up at our shop in Everett which is about 20-30 minutes away, which would save you the shipping cost.

The B pipe is 60mm, full SS including Piping and Flanges, One piece design, High Quality Tig Welded.

If I keep this car, a Quaife is definitely in its future.
