    F7 is mounted the same way as ASR, so no that wont rip out..

    Black works is a Ebay knock off of ASR, i was gonna buy it, but there was no real reviews on it, so i didnt touch it, ended up getting ASR 2nd hand instead, BWR, it seems legit enough, same design principal as ASR an F7, with the back plating mounting

    Sorry if that's how I came across, but I'm just not convinced that ASR is the only proven option. Blackworks Racing is a very common brand in the USA, which I see mentioned frequently in feature cars in the Honda Tuning magazine that I have sent over from the USA, as well as their regular ads.

    Here's a link to their official site if you haven't checked it out yet:

    Otherwise they don't look too dissimilar to me, but maybe I'm not looking at the right components of the SFB.

    F7



    BWR



    ASR - admittedly looks tougher, but that's yet to be proven AFAIK

    theyre all the same idea.

    i mean hell, if you have access to a CNC mill, even a plasma/water jet cutter, and some 6061-t6 aluminium, you could make your own.

    understandable... but after more research, BWR is simply the same as ASR, just cheaper alternative.... id say if anyone where strapped for cash, definite give a go, no one in aus has yet to put one on, if i hadnt brought the asr kit, definite ill go the BWR kit...F7 is for bling factor lol

    If the BWR has similar components to the ASR, an is mounted exactly than id say there almost identical

    provided that the dc2r rear sway bar hasnt been in any damage i dont see why there should be any reason to buy new.

    I'm probably going to go with the BWR so I can mount my DC2R RSB to my EH9 sedan. However for my CRX SiR I'll probably get the full ASR SF brace + RSB kit.

    True, I've definitely seen it done somewhere. Just a chunk of aluminium with some holes in it...

    What makes me lol the most is that ASR make a subframe brace for EFs. The swaybar doesn't even mount to the subframe in them lol. It's just bling.

    I'd love to see if someone has ever mounted a swaybar conventionaly in an EF. Actually mounted it to the subframe.
