it's been discussed before and I believe the result was that it does not fit. Besides, if I remember correctly, the stock sway bar is either the same size, or larger than the RSX's.

The Civic front sway bar (25 mm) is bigger than the RSX bar (22 mm). And no It won't fit in a Civic becausethe way the engine is positioned is not the same as in the RSX

thats weird, i wouldnt think youd want equal size sway bars front and rear, but i guess they have their reasons. 1" is freakin huge for a rear though

you want the car to handle better in the front, since that's where the steering is
