whats your budget?? and u gonna track it or just road use? price wise depends on what sort of type coils u after and comparing with. i would assume tein ss would be cheaper, put personly i would go for cusco just cos every1 eles has tein

price wise i think they have gone up. remembering tein ss used to be just around $1.4k mark.... friend got his flex from jap for just $1.3 brand new




2. which rear sway bar would u pick 4 as an upgrade on dc2 vtir : oem itr or cusco??? in other words.. wich one would u fink or no, is betta?

oem sway bar i think its 19mm while cusco/whiteline u can get em in 20/22mm. but oem one will do the job just as good and u can pick one up for ~$100 instead of speding $200 just on a bar.. with the money u save u could buy a renforment kit for ur subfram which is to protect the car so the chassi wont rip a hole when u put a thicker sway bar in

prefacelift 94-97 model facelife 97-00. just headlights shape and bummper are different but both uses HB4 bulbs. the hids trader sales here are all pretty good all comes with warrenty, just the ones on ebay u have to look out for, u get what you pay for. friends bought em all ebay new for $50 and 2bulbs bpoth 6000k but lid up with different colours....

http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=97977&highlight=itr+rear+sway+bar+sale

got in contact.. its still availabl.. reckon i should get da front as well... considering.. endlinks bout 110(pair) on jdmyard... n it would b a strat bolt on?? do i need nefing els..thanks..

.. also.. should i consider how many ks its done? or .. it jus pretty much depends whether da itr was thrashed or not.. can u get new oem itr sways for bout $150 wif links? n wif da halo projectors.. wat ive found was.. most decent looking ones (off ebay) was from USA.. other ones i looked at seemed to hav halo- but not a full joined circle wen lit.. n dey work wif LEDs.. n u cant really buy HID kit n shove em in halos.. can u? otherwise mite jus hav2 go wif USA ones n try n get bright white/blue LED. any input from dc2 teg owners wif Halo lights, much appreciate (Y) :P

itr is 19mm and dc2 is only 14 i think u can tell the difference. its just a stright swap onto ur dc2. dosent matter how many k;s the bar has done just make sure when ur buying it there no crack of any damage/bend on the bar

itr is 22mm jdm itr is 23mm
dc2 is like a toothpick
