DC2/R Rear Sway Bars, OEM vs Aftermarket

[xntrik]

Anyone run bigger REAR sway bars?
If so state size, brand and pros/cons.

Not to mention, is it worth upgrading into anything bigger or is the 22mm sufficient?

I've been looking into something bigger than the standard 22mm.
If there is already a thread please direct me so.

:thumbsup:



I'll edit this list as we go



Upgradable Sway Bars from OEM (22mm):
JDM ITR 98' - 23mm
Whiteline - 24mm
Cusco - 25mm

Make sure you state rear or front sway bar Xntrik. Or is this going to be a rear bar thread? Either way, make it clearer. :thumbsup:

Being a VTi-R I went straight from 14mm to 23mm, front was already 24mm same as ITR.

'98 spec JDM ITR has 25mm front, 23mm rear
'96 spec JDM ITR + AUDM as you know is 24mm front, 22mm rear.

Along with those small increases there was an increase in spring rates, and wider track due to larger and wider wheels.

I personally see no point going any thicker than what I have at the rear as it may upset the balance, and it is possible to be too stiff. So if I changed anything else I'd rather spend money on top shelf shocks to replace the ITR units.

Whiteline do a 24mm adjustable rear.

I don't know if any aftermarket REAR swaybars for DC2R are hollow but might also wana state if they are solid or hollow. The whiteline 24mm is solid.
