u can get it at the acura dealer, there was a link posted a while back to order it online...if not, go to clubrsx, somebody might be selling theirs over there. by the way, how thick is the rsx front sway bar and how thick is our civic's. Also how much would it cost about for the front one,i know the rear one is about $75-$80 new with all the parts from the Acura dealer.

don't bother getting the front one, it is actually smaller than ours now. you can probably get it at clubRSX for like $50 used. if not they will be about $80 and you can get them from Greg at Hondawerx (SN mugenracerX)

there is a reason that the Front Anti sway bar is smaller on the RSX, and that is to reduce understeer. Un like our cars, the RSX suspesion is a lot more sporty and so the springs have a higher rate and the rear Anti-Sway bar is a lot bigger. Our suspension was tuned for cheepness and ride quality/Safty. So our cars got a bigger Front bar and Lower spring rates because sport wasn't in the cards for us

The front wont fit, the catilitic converter gets in the way. that and the rate of the bar is wrong for our cars. you would need much harder springs to compensate for the increaced body roll.
