rear lower control arms

Who makes a good rear lower control arm for a 2000 integra LS?

Bump... also, what are the benefets of upgrading if your keeping stock wheels.

SRR makes some, as well as Megan Racing I believe.

less weight, less unsprung weight, & stronger. while many do it just for looks. if that's all your concerned with just paint your stock LCA's & put that $$$ towards something else.

Couldn't say it any better myself!

I've been big into Honda B-series engines for about a year now and realized I didn't know anything about the suspension past coilovers and strut bars. Thanks. What else should I be looking at? It's for a 2000 Integra with hopes of around 200 HP.
Also, for a full coilover set, which would be better Tein or Cusco (if price were the same)

fISH...

TIRES! are the biggest factor when it comes to handeling. acceleration, & braking. Without tires none of those would be possible.

Cusco & Tein both make good products. Just make sure you get a coilover setup with adjustable dampening. That allows the user to adjust the ride feel for the conditions, soft for the street, hard for racing.

Comparing the six bars you can install a rear sway bar will have the biggest effect on handeling. Next would be a rear lower tie to help prevent the frame from twisting. After that upper strut bars(front / rear) and finally lower front tie.

Those cheap upper strut bar & lower tie bars sold on ebay are for looks not function. you want the ends to be solid not on a hinged point. If a "brace" can move what's the point?

To get the full benefit of adjustable coilovers all four camber kits are needed and the car should be corner weighted. Like I always say every time the ride height is changed alignment & corner weight should be done. Coilovers can be a pain if just on the street. Most people just eye ball the ride height and go with not knowing what the hell coilovers are even for.

When it comes to suspension do not be cheap, price does reflect quality.

Polyurethane bushings are also something to look into but a warning about them - in cold climates they turn cement hard causing a very harsh ride, unlike rubber bushing poly can be very noisy if not lubed correctly or often. Mugen makes a nice rubber kit.
