Default Advice from the experts ...

Whats up everybody .. my question is simple.. I have a base RSX, and i am currently in the project to fully buld my suspension .. already dropped her and installed the camber kits .. but now its time for something stiffer ...

so now that we all know whats up .. heres my question :

I can get from optauto.com a DC sports rear lower tie bar for $108.00 (polished) or i can get a Skunk 2 rear lower tie bar for $114.00 (anodized) -- I'd prefer the anodized look .. but if the DC sports is that much better, then the choice is clear .. if anyone can give me any feedback I would greatly appreciate it.

Both companies make good quiality products. However I have heard the Neuspeed isn't designed as good as Skunk2's in that the bar can shift up to an inch. This of course is just what I heard and not a realible sourse. However I did hear more good things about Skunk2 than Neuspeed, so that has to mean something.

Lets see what everyone else says.

I've heard many bad things about the rigidity of the DCs (tie and strut bars). I've heard nothing bad about the skunk2s

Neuspeed bars are the best I've seen. I've never heard of anyone's Neuspeed bar shifting around.

Skunk2 is good stuff too.

DC is just OK.

I don't know what Neuspeeds reputation is like for Honda's, but from my experiences with VW's they built top quality stuff at reasonable prices.

Skunk 2 - can't comment.

DC - if constructed anything like there headers, stay away!!!
