I'd say one of the 22 mm (Preferably adjustible) bars with a stock front. Have to have that rotation......

The issue with that is that the car may want to rotate a little too much for the average driver on the street. which can be dangerous.

huh?
The dc5 is just an RSX. The RSX/RSX-S have 19mm sway bars while the type R has a 22mm sway bar.

DC5 is the RSX and RSX-S. DC5R is the Integra Type-R. EM2 is the Civic Coupe. EP3 is the Civic hatchback. ES2 (or ES3) is the Civic Sedan (not too sure on this one).

yes it will fit...you can't put Type R bushings on your Type S bar. The type R bushings are for a 22mm bar. If you want better bushings get the ES 19mm sway bar poly ones. It is an easy job.
