I have the progress one... And it makes a brotha wanna go . BIGGG Difference as oppose to stock! Now as far as Bang to the buck goes... The RSX one is a pretty good deal. You may even be able to find the DC5 sway bar... Its 4mm thicker I believe??? Its more or less more rigid and stronger than the RSX one... On the other hand if you are willing to spend a couple pennies more you can get the PROGRESS SWAY BAR!!! It is by FARRR Bigger, stronger and heavier than any OEM one. The only problem is if you dont have an Si i believe? you need the adapter kit... The adapter kit is just as much as the sway bar itself... But hands down the progress one is amazing plus it comes with a BEEFY! Lower tie bar that says PROGRESS along it... (It's so nice while you driving! Looks and Feel!)

02+ LX also has sway bar.

IMO go with RSX for the money... In fact, without a front strut bar at the time when I installed the RSX sway I immediately felt the backend was too tight, had to get a front strut bar to compensate.

if u go woth JDM DC5 rear sway then u will be buying endlinks all the time cuz they break very easy on our car.

just stick to the 19mm oem RSX bar and u will have no problem with the endlinks.

one of the best mod for our car (stock rear sway ---> RSX rear sway)

if a rsx S rear sway bar is used for a 02 lx coupe.. there's no need to buy endlinks, right? 'cause i can basically use the stock ones???

so all i would need to do is just replace the stock sway bar with an rsx S sway bar?

So progress doesn't fit any other models except Si, what about rsx fit any model civic lx,dx,si etc...? and anything needed for rsx sway bar if you would install on a lx or dx? What about the neuspeed sway bar any good? Haven't heard anything about it?

I have an Lx... But I believe if you have an Si (It comes with a OEM sway bar)... Because I have no OEM sway back I had to buy the progress adapter kit. If you want the progress sway bar...

-JRP
-Performance Improvements
-Acura Woodbine
All carry the progress line...

Believe it or not Performance Improvements Has THE CHEAPEST PRICE for any progress product...

02+ LX comes with a rear sway bar.

You'll just need to take out the old one, and stuff in the new one.

I actually bought one (RSX-S), but then rethought my setup, and bought the RSX-R one (22mm instead of 19mm).

If shipping wouldn't be such a pain, I'd offer it to you. I'm selling it to people in ottawa (trying to, at least). If there's no takers, I'll PM you and see if you want it. I'm asking around $110CDN.

The progress goes for around $210USD.

The progress is 22mm though, AND comes with the rear tie bar.
