ok peeps,

a sway bar prevents body roll in turns, while a strut tower rod helps keep the tires in flat contact with the road, a tie bar connects the control arms together to prevent side-to-side movement of the suspension.

the sway bar attaches to your steering knuckle, the strut bar attaches at the top of your struts inside the engine bay, or in the trunk area. Tie rods, attach to the control arms.

More photos

brembo crx si rotors.
Jasons nice b/w photo
my d15b6 to zc swap took 7 weeks. So I made my own hood.
I used to have really power subwoofers. They messed up my alt, and drained five 60th month batterys. The subs are gone now.
Heres the anti sub look haha
Every other week I have a honda-tech drinking fest/ hang out. We lined up at the local kroger and took photos.


Nice photos

Lookin good,

As far as your subs draining your battery, did you ever consider a more powerful alternator, or a capacitor. Recently I won one on ebay, it hasnt gotten here yet, but I will let you know if it solves my headlight dimming problem.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=1362107517

I shipped the MO thursday, so it should come sometime this week

Lightbulb Shawn's $0.02 about sway bars

Hey Li'l C - Welcome to the board...sorry I haven't been here much recently to say hello earlier. I have a couple of comments to make regarding my understanding of the things...

Anti sway bars - these actually twist to help resist as the car body rolls in turns. Larger sway bars offer more twisting resistance, thus better support as the car rolls. There snake shape is designed in as part of the twisting action to provide the resistance. Other than that, I don't really know shit about suspensions, except my Upper Strut Bar sure does help keep my inside wheel on the road during hard cornering

Glad to see you are getting into go instead of so much audio...that stuff weighs a lot too, so it will slow you down - I like a nice stereo, but I only have four 6.5" speakers in their stock locations.

I am working on a ZC for my sedan...I bet it is great in the HF!!!
