Re: k24 sway bar

The LX/DX bars have less clearance by the cat then the EX bars- the RSX/s give more room where the cat would be on a stock motor, or where the header meets/cat is on a K series swap. So even though your stock LX bar rubs on the exhaust now, a rsx bar should still work. In any event, if you really cant find any answers here, head over to clubrsx.com- lots of members have done k24 block swaps. Our chassis are identical, so whatever works for them will work for you.

Re: k24 sway bar

The motor thats in the car has nothing to do with what sway bars will fit on our car. The distance between the endlinks and the location of the bushings is what matters. A TSX... I dunno, its possible, but I dont think it will fit. Only one way to find out.

Re: k24 sway bar

You can run without a sway bar bro. Mine didnt fit after I did an exhaust swap, so I never put it back on and have been swayless. If it doesnt work, then F it, keep it off for a few weeks till you swoop a new one. That way you dont waste money you dont need to.

Once you have your motor in, your car will feel different because of the weight distribution, and then it will handle different, and you'll have different amounts of under/oversteer, which will dictate what sway will be best for your car and your driving style. Buying any aftermarket sway and bolting it on just to be cool is dumb. Aftermarket parts dont make your ride better, the right aftermarket parts make your car better.

Re: k24 sway bar

It'll be a little more loose up front. It'll be fine for a few weeks, just dont go auto crossing.
