swaybars for 07 EX

emoze · 11-10-2007, 01:56 AM

my new 07 EX coupe tends to have twitchy handling and abrupt oversteer tendencies. It has been re-aligned.

What sway bar options will settle this thing a bit? SI? Aftermarket?

I confess i don't even know what is under it now.

(Oh, - my other car is a Porsche 914-6 GT with track credentials, it tracks on rails and only turns in when I ask it to)

For what the Porsche cost, it should. I don't race but for the "fun" I have with my Ex coupe I have Si front/rear sway bars, HFP suspension, and 17" HFP rims with 225/45-17 tires and I am very pleased with this set-up.

The FWD car is only going to oversteer if the driver tells it to by either, going passed the limit and slaming on the brakes or an abrupt lift of the throttle. Other than that, it should push like a dump truck. I have an Si with an adjustable suspension and on the loosest possible setting, it still pushes.

Go to some auto x events with the civic to get a better feel of what it is supposed to do.
