progress rear sway bar

I have a 2002 ex sedan that has a 23.5mm STOCK front sway bar. I was wondering if anyone has bought and installed the progress 22mm rear sway/tie bar combo only, NOT in conjuction with the 27mm front sway bar. Also this applies if you have a coupe with a 25mm STOCK front sway bar. How did the car handle, neutral, understeers, or oversteers slightly with the STOCK FRONT SWAY BAR and progress rear sway bar. Thank you, your reply is greatly appreciated!!!

You are just asking about the rear one? I have the rear bar and the handling is much different w/ it. I had to have it installed just b/c the bolts were on so tight we couldn't get them off. One thing just to be aware of though is if you have an aftermarket exhaust. I have the Thermal and finally after a pain in the a$$ w/ it. I have the piping cut off and rewelded to fit around it and not sit on it like it was.
Good part, worth the $ IMO.

if you get both, you will probably feel more neutral. PM Grey for more info. If you just get the rear, then most likely you will oversteer. If you just get the front, most likely you will understeer.

I have both the front and the rear with tie bar and they're awsome. The rear really feels nice but the best thing about the front is that it helps get rid of tire hop! Too bad they haven't got an upper front and rear though. Had to go with a Neuspeed upperfront and some generic upper rear. The car is super tight...Can't wait to get my KW's put on to complete the whole thing..
