lol! yeh for the front not the rear .. i already have the asr rear

I think the ITR front sway is 26mm, correct me if im wrong.

Any suggestions on what I need to make this fit?

Hey Paul..
just get the EM1 one.. tis 26mm.. and its 100% guaranteed to fit:thumbsup: ..

and plus i thinkg your currenty one on ek4 is like 24 or somthing.. it isnt worth the hassle to get teh extra 2 mm..

Just try get an EM1 one.. proabably cheaper than ITR one too if u can locate one

to add , with the EK having different LCA's to a DC chassis - are the end links the same ?

i would be guessin the lca's are different .. so maybe the forks need to be changed?

Thanks for your input Daniel (blitz), ekhybrid .. i always thought the ek4 was smaller than the ITR/CTR front sway.

ITR/CTR = 26mm .. are you sure that the EK4 is identical?? so do the hell do ppl change it then? *confused*

bigger front sway will have greater handling with traction but when you break traction you will plough through

yeap im 101% that the ek4 is 26mm
maybe ppl who change it are GLi owners who have 22mm fsb as standard and want the beefier 26mm.

Yes DC2 JDM ITR 96 is 24mm at front & 22mm at rear, 98 spec is 25mm at front & 23mm at rear. AUDM has equivalent to JDM 96 spec suspension.

Hullo,

Honbits (Sydney) sold me a 26mm CRV front sway bar for not much $$$.

Apparently it's a straight fit into EK civics.

Havn't bolted it in yet. That's a post-chrissie holiday project.
