DC5S rear is 21mm solid. No idea on front.

EDIT: Front is 26.5mm and hollow. Don't know the wall thickness.

Will they give you higher roll stiffness and hence less body roll, yes. Will this make your car any faster, probably not.

pretty sure em1: front 26mm and rear 13mm.

I meant that they may not make your car any faster around a circuit :p.

Hey guys,

can anyone deffinately confirm

Eg Vti front sway = 22mm
Jdm series 1 front sway dc2r = 24mm

I just measured a front dc2r sway and it looks pretty close to 22mm not 24, or possibly am i measureing in the incorrect spot?

Changed the front sway bar D bushes on my VTi CD5 the other day.

27 mm ID bushes = 27mm roll bar?

Civic ES (sedan) and EU (hatch) both come with front and rear sway bars. i believe the rear is 14mm, and the front is 20mm. don't quote me on that though.

Jazz Gen 1's have a dedicated front swaybar. At the rear the trailing arms are joined by a beam that, as well providing lateral location, also contibutes to the antiroll. So although it isn't a separate swaybar as such they do have a noticeable amount of rear antiroll.

Cheers

dc2 rear sway bar stock is 14mm?

so (and i'm sorry if this is the wrong place, didnt want to make a whole thread about it) am i better off getting a 24mm rear sway or a 27mm. is 27mm just overkill?

Need to tell us more. Ie is it a track car or daily driver.

You also need to look at your front sway bar as 'bigger isn't always better'. 27mm bar will also put a lot of stress on your sub frame if you don't reinforce it properly. So there's no quick answer :)
