DC2R swaybars sizes/installition on EG hatch

[spetz]

What are the swaybar sizes for the front and rear of a DC2R?
And the swaybar sizes on a EG Civic?

Are they a good size for an EG hatch with shocks, springs and strut braces to have? How is the handling? Neutral, tail happy, understeering?

The engine is a B16A at the moment but may be a K20A later, which I am assuming weight distribution should remain fairly similar

The ITR bars come in:

Front: 24 or 25mm
Rear: 22 or 23mm

This is depending on whether the bar is AUDM/JDM and maybe the year ITR it came off.
I have a 23mm rear and 25mm front. Dont worry which you get, IMO 1mm isnt that big a difference here.

They are great for a hatch as long as you get reinforcement. Reinforcement has been covered numberous times, do a search.

Some EG's dont even come with a swaybar at the rear standard.

Yeah this one didn't have one standard, but has one now. It is an OEM honda one but not sure which. I assume from a VTi or Si Civic. Regardless it looks skinny, no more than 16mm or so.

What sort of reinforcment are you talking about? The swaybar joins to the LCA and onto the rear subframe so it looks pretty sturdy.


Charlie at GPC would source/fit them, he said he needs to do some slight modifications?
