On the older 96-00 Civics, many people upgraded to a Type-R or big aftermarket bar. They were usually too stiff and tore the subframe apart. Now, companies like ASR make reinforcement kits to strengthen the subframe. Maybe the 06+ Civics need something similar to handle the stress of the stiffer bars.
See the Redshift RSB Support Brackets from Excelerate.
