Rear Suspension

I was recently in an accident because the @ss end of my civic got loose and I ended up doing a 360. I noticed that there was alot of swaying in the @ss end when I use to hit bumps or take turns at fast speeds. My suspension is completely stock. What can I do to tighten my handeling?

wouldnt recommand dc sport front upper bar, get neuspeed front upper bar instead, and rsx sway bar.cheapest route. neuspeed sports springs are nice too.

ya dc's strut bar has a flaw... it's pivoted and weak. go with neuspeed's solid design. its also cheaper.
i would also go with neuspeed sports not eibach sportlines. eibachs are overpriced and arent as stiff as neuspeeds.
strut bar isnt going to do much with sticking your car to the ground tho. it'll give you better control of the car but its different than helping the car stick

Sway bars will also help keep the car grounded.

how is the neuspeed sway bar btw? do the bushings cause squeaks? I hear that it has a sorta built in rear lower tie bar feature... sounds cool.... I just got my neuspeed polished front upper... looks solid as %$^$.. install looks like cake...
