Hi guys I just read through some of the posts on this little thread and can honestly say thank god I found it, cause I would have been clueless about the tear out problem with the progress rear sway bar. I was just looking into getting the bar for my FA5, which is totally stock, and I am definitely appreciative to all for helping me make the more educated decision about getting the sway bar. A little question I have is, I would like to get the reinforcements for the endlinks mounting points. I saw that stated just three posts up I can get them from Josh at Excelerate but I am not sure of how to get ahold of him or let him know that I would like to purchase a set. I am wondering how the car will handle after I put the bar on with the reinforcements with the stock suspension. I had a del sol that I installed an oem rear bar from a vtec del sol, mine was an si w/o a rear bar. I noticed that when turning, the rear felt like it wanted to basically rotate. Also the back seemed to be more planted to the road when pushed, around a tight reference corner. I'm just having a difficult time finding parts for the car that I want to modify the car with because of so many debates for just about every part for our cars. Having more positive feedback for a part would give a much easier decision, for god sakes I was just going to do a coilover setup and a sway bar setup like most would do for a suspension mod, but now I am unsure if I want to go that route cause of so much speculation as to weather or not it even makes as big of a dif as it did on all the old civic chassis. Sorry for so much in a little space but I'm just overwhelmed with what to do first and if I should even do anything at all. All help is much appreciated.
