you can't use the bushings and brackets from the progress mounting kit because they are different sizes. though those look nice because they are both similar in size you will still get understeer. the rear for the RSX will fit but not the front because of the position of the cat.

if you go to jegs.com, or driverfx.com, you can get the bushings with greasable brackets (energy suspension) for pretty cheap.

I got the front and rear bushings with brackets for only $25CAD!

that's about fifty nine cents USD! hehehe jk

Thanks guys, One more question, do you know of any of the members that actually have this bar? Cause I was reading on some other forums and they said it was "too stiff" and most people didn't like it, ride comfert ins't really an issue with the way I drive anyway so... Also, anyone know of a cheaper place to get it? 390 is a lot for a sway bar... I could get a progress front/rear and mounting kit for a little more than that.... I'd also have to get endlinks and bushings on top of that If I were to go the mugen way, But i don't want to be in a situation where I've bought the progress rear bar, and now I need a bigger one...

Yeah, I have the 27mm front Progress anti-roll bar and the 22mm rear Progress anti-roll bar. For the street it's a nice setup, but I'de prefer something even more stiff.

BTW, I have a set of the Energy Suspension bushings for sale. Red and 27mm in size. PM me to purchase.

I have neutral handling as of now. The car breaks free of the pavement and slides sideways with no oversteer or understeer when accellerating slowly through a turn. I guess maybe the larger bar up front is necessary since the front weighs more than the rear. The point is to make the body lean just as much up front as in the back. You can do this with a larger sway bar up front than in back. At least that's how I see things.
