Exclamation Sway bars

Front wheel drive car will benefit more from a rear sway bar than the front. So if you buy only 1 get the rear first if you want the handling.

Well if the car was set up from the factory with lots of understeer then yes that can be good advice.
If however the car is setup with a much more neutral attitude in corners, like say my car, then you could be screwed, and actualy end up with a worse handling car.

but, being a 4th gen honda civic board and we all (most of us anyway) have a 4th gen civic...
Didn't honda setup our cars for gross understeer? If so, a sway bar in the rear would be the way to go. Might also try a rear lower tie bar. You can also benefit from upper front and rear tie bars. I would do one at a time though and find out what best suits your driving style and skill. Good luck and I would like to hear results.

I have an ST Rear Anti-Sway Bar which I will be putting on very soon. The mounts should be attached today so the rest will be a breeze.

All the Auto-Xers at Honda-Tech told me the best set up is a 22mm rear bar and stock DX/Si 18mm Front or even no front at all.
