    5th gen Accord sway bars.

    Does anybody know what sway bars are available for CD5 Accords? Something to stop the body roll.

    bel air, cos my mum got scared
    whiteline only make the rear sway bar for accords, and yes, 18mm is the thickest they made. you can probably check on US ebay for neuspeed sway bars, they might be thicker...

    stock ones are prob 12-14mm thick

    As the previous posts have stated Whiteline only make one sway bar for the accord being for the rear.

    I remember in the USA, Suspension Techniques produce front and rear swaybars for the accord, but they were around $300 odd USD (plus P&H and Tax)

    When I installed the rear whiteline swaybar in my accord, I had bilstein shocks and springs, and didnt really gain much from it, but then again the whiteline swaybar was only about $150.

    A front strut brace works wonders in the 5th Gen, so if you have the cash I recommend one of those also

    the sway bar should make a noticeable improvement, maybe you aint hitting them corners fast enough.

    brands for strut braces are not important, what is important is the quality of the brace itself (thickness, type of alloy/metal used and where it bolts onto the chassis/strut tower).

    if you search through usa ebay you can pretty much find good ones for the front and rear braces.

    it will cost more then USD$3 when it arrives at your door.
    a link to the ebay listings would help

    no, dont buy the whiteline sway or rear.. they are shit... doesnt really do anything... because u gotta remember,, we drive a 4 door car... dont waste your money on the rear or sways as it will be wasting your time and you will hardly notice any difference in handling......
    If you are willing to blow like 200-250 on suffin that you can hardly tell the difference,, issit really worth it?.....
    so my advice bro... dont listen to these ppl because half the time, they dont know wat they are talking about...
    the way they talk,, they give u advice on buying them but never give you feedback on how they perform..... Quote "does wonders for your car". Like seriuosly, what wonders can it possibly do......
    fair enuff, if we were driving ITR's, then getting them mite help us handle but when its an accord.. dont even bother....
    Best thing to do,, Drop your car to the ****ing ground and let it hug the floor..
