HI all...if u dont know what this is i dont know y u are here...

actually...theres a first for everyone ! Its a CARBING tie bar...YES !

BTW ALL civic owners (and all car owners really!) should invest in a proper suspension setup like mine or similar...tie bar, front and rear strut tower bars, thicker swaybar, polyuerethene bushes etc...and ofcourse decent aftermarket suspension ! . . . makes a HELL of a difference to ur driving ability. 8)

Now...i just cant wait to install it *DAM NIGHT TIME* lol

Nice Ben.......but does the car feel any different?.....oops forgot, you haven't put it in yet! LOL

Wait till you get that sway bar, it'll be like a new car

Whered you source that from.

I have a 89 civic with KYB racing struts and KMAC springs.

What do you recon the next step would be? Rear sway bar?

Cheers

i sourced it from a very good friend / personal importer... 8)

Would normally cost around $250.00 landed to ur doorstep....

But a wise investment !

For ur car mate ? For all FWD's its best to stiffen up the rear to decrease understeer and hopefully make the car more neutral.

With - rear strut tower brace , thick(er) rear swaybar ( most important) , polyeurethene bushes , lower tie bar ( like mine ) and many other things...

there is many bits and peices u can go out and buy...but the best its are far too expexnsive and or just not in this country ( just like this tie bar i picked up :P) So its best to go have a chat with Whiteline -

www.whiteline.com.au

And see how they can make ur car turn harder and better !

Take it from here !

yeh good old whiteline

Thanks for your advice man. Much appreciated

I wonder why people don't start off with a bigger sway bar. That is the best bang for you bucks (instead of fiddling around with tie bars and strut braces) *cOuGH* BEN *CouGH* hehe

yeah but it sez CARBING man! heavy duty Jap shit! :P Just like my ITR front strut... just that Type R sticker improves my handling by at least 145%...

almost spent $210 on a front Carbing strut awhile back...wonder how much better it would have been? :roll:

I run a Spoon strut brace, big deal. The only reason I run it is because spunkmunky found it for me at a wreckers and it was designed for an EF8.

If not, I would have gone with a non-brand name that did the job just as well.

Brand name = waste of money over a sticker :P
