I've got one as well, IMO it's a bit of overkill - the RSX 19mm will do just fine. But I do like mine, it's really helped my body roll a whole lot on corners. I have to keep greasing my bushings (I got polyurethane ones), otherwise I get tons of weird noises coming from it.

Is the rear still as comfortable as before? I mean over bumps and all.

Yeah it's really not affected that much by the rear sway - I've had a chance to try 3 different suspension setups with my DC5R bar, and the ride quality is pretty much all determined by the shocks and springs in back, not the bar.

Well, it's just the sway bar, it's swapped in easily enough.

Since my car is heavier than the Civic sedan, I was looking into RSX or ITR (DC5) suspensions for it, but all the other parts like tie rods etc...what a hassle.

i had the 19mm one for a few months and it was great on the street, and reasonable on the track. Now I have the Progress 22mm sway bar and it is a little rough for the streets, but GREAT on the track. The whole feeling of the car is completely different going into turns now.
