Neuspeed rear sway vs. Progress
Which on of these is better? I know getting a stock one from an RSX is cheaper, but im still interested in going aftermarket. Is there any major differences in them? And whcih one will be easier to install?

I do not agree because the neuspeed rear sway has a plate that comes with it that drastically re-enforces it. I have the neuspeed one from my civic that will fit my rsx-s that I just got and there is a big difference

Rep Power: 424 From a functional standpoint, WTF is the difference? NOTHING. Its a reinforcement bar with a sway bar. I don't care about the ins and outs of whats bigger, honestly neither are really necessary.

Rep Power: 380 True, the current gen civic and its derivatives have not developed the same "ripping the lower control arm mount out" issue that the older civic's and integras did.. so that brings up the question... If no one's actually had problems running with out one, then why add the weight?

Rep Power: 424 The RSX has a little re-inforcement bar built into the lower subframe that the Civic doesn't have. Or at least it used to (02ish). Whether or not they figured out its un-necessary, I don't know, but still..... a 22mm bar isn't going to rip stuff up.

Rep Power: 368 yeah RSX has a lil reinforcement onto the rear subframe.. I dont think the Civic ever had it, in any year. but maybe I'm wrong.
although, I thought the progress bar is solid?
a hollow 22mm bar vs a solid 22mm bar does have differences.
