Progress sway

[gotsnodooks]

I noticed that there is only a rear Progress sway bar on your site. Do they make one for the front? I plan on running my car on a circle track this upcoming summer so I'm trying to find the best set-up I can put on it.

Thanks!

i think eibach is the only company that make front ones for our car. but a front ones not really necessary for our cars anyway.

^ That's what I was wondering....I did notice most people do only have the rear sway...so if the front isn't going to make a dramatic difference then I won't get it.

The reason people are going to larger rear bars is to effectively stiffen the rear of the car, reducing rear grip, and thus reducing understeer. To increase the size of the front would negate this affect, as the front would now be as stiff relative to the rear as it was when stock. If anything you'd go to a smaller front bar, to produce more grip in the front and reduce understeer. The only problem with this route is body roll would increase, necessitating stiffer springs to control body motion.

^yup, well stated.

Rear bars are a go. Front bars on push happy civics are not really a good idea.
