If all of your suspension components are stock then the 19mm is plenty. It reduces understeer and give the car a more neutral feel.

If your car is an 01-02, then the 19mm rear is a good match with the 25mm front. Honda reduced the size of the front sway bar in the later years so I am not sure how the 19mm or larger would feel on those models.

phantomninja has a little shameless behaviour in the past
go have clubrsx.com a visit those guys sell a lot of their stock ones usually for like 50-80 dollars or so but if you get the 02-04 ones they are 19mm if you get the 05-06 ones they are 21mm and i would go with that if i were you because thats what i have and it's freakin beautiful on the track

Don't forget to buy the mounting bushings and make sure you use a bunch of penetrating oil on the end links. You need to use an allen key in the end of the bolt to hold it while turning the nut. The allen portion usually fills up with rust and strips easily so be careful.

If you try to hold the bolt with vise grips you'll bugger the threads. Either way, don't be suprised if you need new end links before you're done. I did mine early in the car's life and managed to escape unscathed. If you live in a warmer climate (unlike me) you may not have a rust issue, but, still be careful.

You just need the 19mm bushings that usually come with the bar. The stock brackets work fine.

Just ask if it comes with bushings but it probably will. Grey's endlinks aren't needed but they are an upgrade.

Here's a link to Grey's endlinks. As you can see they are much more beefy than stock....stronger and don't wear out as fast. That's why they are an upgrade.

Since the guy you mention is selling the bar with the endlinks....I would take 'em....especially if you are at all worried about messin' up the stock ones during your install.
