Type-R rear sway bar with new Beaks kit. Is that a decent purchase? I mean, how much would my total be if I bought a brand new Type-R rear sway bar and than the Beaks kit to properly mount it?

Thanks. yourselves. Tomorrow is Friday.

 

 

seems kinda high
I got my set-up for 140 with bushings shipped to my door

Did that include the kit?

 

Yea I got a used comptech 24mm, which is like an ITR copycat, for 100 shipped. Bushings for like 16 bones, BSQ kit 20, and skunk2 tie for 80. My setup could be better for less money, but it works well.

 

not sure how much teh beaks kit is but the type r sway bar new is 63$ and bushing 1.50

 

could i go to acura and order one for 63? where to get bsq kit

you my friend, are a good man.

 

so i'll answer my own question, no I would't pay $170. that's roughly $80 or more than you'd pay if you bought the bar, bushings and beaks kit (NEW).

$99 for the JDM 23mm rear sway bar. BSQ kit $20...your set.

 

the acura dealer would charge the list price, $75..i got that price from here http://www.acuraparts247.com/s...ch=no

umm not exactly. you still need bushings, brackets, bolts, and possibly endlink bushings and endlink collars. that's at least another $20-30

 

I got the bar, bracket, and bushings (entire kit) for $104 at http://www.ahmotor.com and then $20 for the BSQ kit.

Total = $124

 

I've had a link to the Beaks kit bookmarked forever, just haven't gotten the extra funds for it yet....

i heard that the Beaks mounts were better than BSQ...
any word on that?

 

Some people don't use them...they re-use them or already have some. It is better to buy new ones though

PatrickGSR94 would be the best to ask about this, as he's owned both kits. If I had extra money I would probably get the Beaks kit only because the mounts are thick and look solid. Personally, I couldn't justify spending an extra $50 for that single reason. The BSQ is good quality though, and people have run them on their cars for years without problems. Supposedly the Beaks holds the bar a little further away from the LCA's to help if you're having problems rubbing on the ABS brackets or lines

yeah, I heard the mounts were stronger and there were brackets for both sides.. i'm not even sure. I heard that the ABS brackets had to be modified one way or another, but maybe that was just if you were going to add the Beaks Tie bar in as well.
