Default Neuspeed lower tie-bar removal questions

I recently bought an '01 PY ITR, and I'm getting it ready for stock-class SCCA autox. It has a Neuspeed lower tie bar (in addition to the stock bar) that I need to remove, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether or not the Neuspeed bar came with longer bolts. If so, I'll need to get some stock-length bolts before I start ripping things apart.

Also, there are a couple brackets for, I believe, the ABS wheel sensor wires that had to be slightly relocated to install the bar (now wire-tied to the bar), and I need to replace the missing bolts. Does anyone know the bolt size off-hand?

Thanks,
Brian Fitzpatrick

Yes, the Neuspeed bar did come with longer bolts. As for the size of the bolts on the ABs brackets, not sure but they are a pretty common size. I think I used a 8mm socket to un-install mine on my GSR.

Thanks! Anyone know the specifics of the stock bolts - size, thread, length?

I'd go ahead and get the OEM bolts from the dealer - they have pointed ends and make R/Ring them so much easier than standard flat ended bolts. Pretty sure you can't get something like that at a bolt/nut store.

Thanks for the tip. I'll do that and pick up the bracket bolts at the same time.

Anyone have the part numbers for these bolts?

I'm looking on http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org, but the parts diagram image is missing for the "REAR LOWER ARM" section, which I believe is what I need.
