Sway Bar Specs Chart has been updated

As some of you know, I keep a sway bar chart on my DX-R site. I have updated this chart to show the changes for the 2005 model year. There's not a lot of changes. Most changes are in the other Honda models and Acura line.

If you see any discrepancies or errors, and you have proof that they're wrong, please let me know and I'll change it. All info was gathered from Honda's site and various sources.

Click on the link in my sig to go to the site and you'll find it under DX-R Articles section.

Yep, it's just another way that the US gets the shaft on our USDM Hondas.

Special Edition or SE is equivalent to the VP...

It's a DX with A/C, CD player and electric door, for 500$ more than a DX!

If you look at the very bottom of the chart, you'll see that it IS on there. And FYI, the base still has a 19mm. Only the Type-s has the 21mm.

It would be a start.... have you autocrossed before? if not, run the car as it is now. Learn to drive it as is. it will give you a better idea as to what you may or may not want to get....

The rear sway bar DIY was written before the 2005 came out, so it's no surprise that it doesn't mention it. It was written by Grey a long time ago. I may update it soon to show newer models.
