Hey guys I am wanting to install a beaks rear bar on my 94 vti-r integra. Problem is I have some sort of brake or abs line in the way from what I've tried to find out. I have two friends who have ITRs who also have this in the way. So it basically means I cant fit it flush/it won't fit.

I've looked on google and pictures of the installed product and there isn't anything in the way, they just attach the beaks bar.

Anyone know about this? If i am unclear let me know, I can add arrows to the points I mean! Thanks!

The black cable looking thing below the sway bar...that's in the way at the moment

it's the ABS sensor wiring

So is there a way to install the bar? Has anyone had this problem?

Most people will cable tie the wires up.

But better option is to throw the beaks crap away

ok..i assume there is some way to remove the bolt and bracket that is attached to the wire that is in the way...cause that is chunky and was hard to move...I shall have another look soon...! Thanks so much for your help!

Once you unbolt the ABS wire you can get quite a bit of free play and move it around man.

i'm quite sure it's just a bling bar

Some people say they notice the difference. OH declare them liars. Most just believe it's bling. OP it would be interesting if you could post what you think of the bar once installed!

Oh awesome! Glad I asked about it! I will let you guys know after installing and will post some pics :D
If there is a difference I have a feeling it will be hardly noticeable...maybe stop my chassis from making the rare squeaking noises every so often!
I like the look of the bar atm so it shouldn't be too bad!

looks like another ricer fad. same with replacing rear lower control arm's. thicker sway bar would be better IMO. just another thing to scrape and bend on speed hump's.

That's familiar, it's my old car lol

From memory I just bent the brackets a little and never had an issue in the years since fitting it. The tie bar isn't meant to make a difference you can feel. It just helps provide some strength or integrity to the chassis when a thicker sway bar is used such as the JDM ITR 23mm bar pictured. An ITR has one fitted stock as well as a thicker subframe in this section to start with.

If you're after a mod you can feel get a rear strut brace. I had a Spoon item fitted to this car.
