Sway bar coming, Woohoo!
Getting used RSX S sway bar from clubrsx shipped for $55US... One step up towards my complete suspension upgrade!
So...
Think I can install it myself? Or anyone help me install it? Or should I get it installed at a shop? I'm gonna go to Hi Tech to get winter tires put on so I'm thinking of maybe getting it done then....

Rep Power: 0 $55 to my door coz it's used, plus it's bar only (I already have sway bar, just replace I think).
I think the guy also has another piece with all the bushings for $65... (speaking of which I'm gonna check with him if I need those bushings too). It's through mugenracerx.
I will go to Hi Tech to get it installed, I think, just to make sure everything's torqued on properly, plus if it doesn't quite fit they will know better how to fit the thing... So excited... After this, just need to do strut bars and tie bar and I'm complete!
EDIT: Looking at the DIY, I think I will require new bushings for the bar... Damn, probably like $15-20 new from Acura, no biggie...

Rep Power: 0 it will fit as long as your exhaust is slightly bend around that area or using stock exhaust, it fits perfect, and its not hard to install, well, the harddest part is to get the bolts out, but no problem if u have air tools, save prolly 100 to let hi tech install it

Rep Power: 0 yes, might as well throw in the lower tie if they install it for free, or hope they dont charge your extre for the tie bar, i have one for sell if u want, never installed, and i have front tower bar for sell, sell u the 2 bar for 50, haha

Rep Power: 0 I got Injen CAI, won't fit the bar... As for rear tie, I'm iffy about the no-name ones (sorry, haha) so I might invest in a Tenzo since I'm going to Hi Tech, *then*, maybe they'll install all the stuff for free...

Rep Power: 0 $55US including shipping via UPS ground to-my-door. Shipped last Thursday, here this Thursday. No tax no duty (probably coz it's used and small amount of $$)!

Rep Power: 0 install is really easy ... just replace the stuff the 13mm one had with the stuff for 19mm ... dont even need to look at the DYI ... i have a pile of new bolts if you need them, i spent $20+ dollars buying new bits and bolts, but when i went to take my old one off, my car was <3000 KMs, so i used the old ones (that were new anyway)

Rep Power: 0 well ... i didnt' put it on myself cause i dont have a jack and stands, but i have a ratchet set .... it's really easy, tools:
1. Jack and stands
2. Rachet Set
3. Pilers or Clamps --> to attach the bolts to the end links
4. Creeper (nec necessary)
Keep in mind I had no problems because everything else was stock.
