05 civic vp coupe/ rsx sway bars?

Ok, I have a 05 civic vp coupe, and I know that it does not have any swaybars.

I was told it was just a simple bolt on to put the 05 rsx s sway bars on my car.

Is it just a simple bolt on?

what other parts am I going to need, Ie. bushings mounts etc...?

I tried searching for this info and did not get answers clear enough for a simpleton such as my self to understand.

So I come humbly before you sages to ask for simple advice, I can understand.


Thanks in advance

You need the progress swaybar mounting kit.
Or you can get EX control arms, but you still need to drill holes either way.

You care to post a dyno of that that:
1) does not use Nitrous?
2) does not use boost?
I find it incredibly unlikely that you put down more torque than horsepower with almost any Honda motor.

someone told me that on the 05 vp's you only had to install the bars and mounts, I guess I could just pop my head under it and take a look.

You have to drill into the frame and install endlinks for the rear. Front should just need mounts. There is a DIY around here somewhere.
