Yeah right, I wish I could. I don't have that much money though. Plus I don't think I'll get that many customers to re-coupe my losses anyway. Sowwy...
Well, I'm going to be looking today for some more hardware. Hopefully I'll find something and I'll buy it. So... That should get here either Mon. or Tue. Maybe even Sat. As soon as it does I'll re-assemble everything and test it out again. Wish me luck!
Endlinks hold the sway bar into place and allow it to move slightly with the car to apply the pressure it need to hold the car to the road. When upgrading your sway bar to a 20mm+ bar we have found out that the stock ones don't like it and break. So we need better ones. Hotchkis makes a set for $150, but you know grey, he wants to be different.

Yep, pretty much what robbclark1 said... Thanks robbclark1. Plus my end links are height adjustable so that you can play around with sway bar clearance for modified suspensions.

It depends on how you drive. People have had problems with the rear end links; that's for sure. I haven't heard of anyone having a problem with their front end links. It seems like the front and rear end links are the same. It must be the suspension geometry in the rear; it must put more stress on the end links than it does in the front.

Nah, why? It looks like they've got similar rod ends, although their bolts are only grade 5. Plus their bushings are polyurethane, which is less stiff than what I'm planning to use.

Great, I'll let you know when I have them available.

the neuspeed is 19mm.. not thick enough I think.
but the problem is, I think its a solid bar from what I remember.... not hollow like the RSX's 19mm... hence stiffer...
but Neuspeed is one of the few aftermarket companies I believe to actually R&D their products...
it should be fine.
if anything, just email them and ask.
although if you do drive like a wack and go to the track on a daily basis and abuse the heck out of your car.. perhaps the increase stiffness may take a toll on ur stock endlinks.
