Where did you guys order you ITR rear sway and mounting kit?

 

None of you guys have this setup?

 

What kind off spring rates are you running. I am not trying to tell you what to do but I experienced subframe tear out on my daily driver(Never Tracked) because I had low spring rates. If yours are low I would recommend buying a Comptech, SRR, or Appollo Rear swaybar/tiebar setup. The ITR rear is probably too big for civics and their weak subframes.

Well I have the Neuspeed Full Thread Coilovers (race spring). I tried to look up the spring rates but cannot find it. I'm pretty sure they are low.

Anyone know what the spring rates on those coilovers are?


I forgot to say that I will have the GSR rear brake conversion along with the trailing arms. I've heard of a few subframes tearing, thanks for the info

Anyone else experience this?

I've looked in the classifieds but all of the ones that I've found where sold. Didn't know passwordjdm had them I will check that out, but I still need to find out about this subframe subject...

 

I can't find the spring rates either. You might have to call nuespeed. Beaks also sell the complete kit minus the endlinks. Check with http://www.robearracing.com on a price for the Appollo rear swaybar/tiebar kit. i put this exact same setup on my car after the subframe tearout. if you do some reading you will find a thread i posted in about this exact same problem and it was agreed upon that the spring rate makes a difference.

 

From what I'm reading maybe it would be best to stick with the same manufacturer and get a neuspeed front/rear sway combo to go along with the coilovers.

Now I need to find out how big that bar is. Wouldn't that sound like the best way to go?

Truthfully I would probably buy the SRR or Appollo rear combo. It is probably cheaper and has added safety.

 

http://www.beaksproducts.com you can get bar, reinforcement, endlinks etc... through him.

I'm looking at that site and I only see an application for the 96+ civic for the appollo, also if I go with that setup what front sway should I match it up with?

I was thinking you owned an EK. Look at http://www.perpetualconcepts for the SRR combo for the EG. As for the front I don't really know.
