Talking picked up my springs

ok, i finally picked up my s techs. they are a little dirty, and show signs of use, but they are still nice. and i only paid 66 bucks for them, so its well worth it
and the last pic is me excited hehe. and finally also pics of the rear sway. they will both go on the ride hopefully next thursday or friday.




im a happy ninja today

Why would you need the endlinks for the RSX rear sway bar?

Majin, you'll feel huge difference in handling after you install both springs/rear swaybar. But, do you have the shocks to go along with???

j/k majinb, off/t have you been working out for the "get in shape" competition.

on/t, springs look nice and you definitely will feel a difference in handling with the sway bar. Just be careful on those stock shocks, go slow over speed bumps and watch out for dips in the road, though they still will blow eventually, you can get some more life out of them.

if there is no difference, then why do the civic endlinks break with a rsx rear sway sometimes?

lets hope you install the rear sway bar in the correct orientation.

there are lumps in the sway bar that "correspond" to the lower control arms/exhaust pipe. if you install the sway bar upside down, the sway bar will hit the lower control arm and rattle against the exhaust. it will also snap your endlinks.

Yeah, the sway bar will make a very noticeable difference. But if you're still on stock tires, don't go pushing it to the limit to see how fast you can take turns

I'm also curious how long your stock struts will last. How many miles are on your car now? I have an 02 w/ 57k. Keep us posted

my ride is a 01 with 75-76k almost. so anyway, i baby the hell out of my car, it takes me forever to go over a speed bump anywhere cause i know it helps every little bit.
my tires are dunlop sport S2's. i like them. came with the car and the tread is almost perfect after 20k after 1 year and a few days of owning the car.
why shouldnt i push the limit? i do it now anyway
