was just browsing throu the usual sites that i order parts from and damn i ran across the DC5 22mm rear sway for 59.99, and yesterday i just got mine that i ordered for 89.99 oh well. this is a freakin steal for those looking to upgrade your rear sway bar.

good find .. that really IS a steal.

I've had this bar on my car with stock endlinks and it's a HUGE difference from the shitty stock ex rear sway

22mm isn't too big? i thought 19mm was the biggest you should go w stock endlinks?

 
Rep Power: 264

i've been riding with the 19mm rsx bar for a while now and its def a lot better. i'm waiting to install my 22mm DC5 sway until i order some upgraded links from Grey just because i'm tired of having to replace mine

 
Rep Power: 296

so the 19mm breaks the endlinks too?? that sucks..

well..when you get those upgraded endlinks and install your 22mm bar.....wanna sell me your 19mm one??? i've been looking for one forever.

 
Rep Power: 264

shipping is gonna be a bitch because it'll be a big box besides its gonna be another 2 weeks before i get those upgraded endlinks thou. you should look on clubrsx.com their always selling the 19mm oem sway bars

I had the 22mm neuspeed sway with the enforce plate and its a drastic difference

 
Rep Power: 296

yeah ive tried clubrsx a few times...but it sucks cuz they require like 15 or 20 posts just to look at the forsale/trade forum...

well, when you're ready to sell it just lemme know...maybe we can work something out.

Since when, and says who?

 
Rep Power: 296

uhh..i dunno really. lol. i just thought i read it here on the forums, that the endlinks tend to break a lot with anything bigger than 19mm. i take it im wrong...

 
Rep Power: 424

22 for over a year, 19 for much longer before that. Nothing's wrong.
RSX-S endlinks are the SAME right down to the part number..... you can roll one off the lot with a 21mm bar, and I guarantee you they've got at least a 40% factor of safety in it.
If the bar is dimensioned properly (Progress is the only one I'm aware of that isn't), then it shouldn't cause any hyperextension problems.

Damn i got a ITR rear 22m bar for $89 three weeks ago.

where can u get aftermarket endlinks if there even is aftermarket endlinks?....or can i just buy the rsx-s endlinks?

 
Rep Power: 264

grey has some endlinks that he's been selling for a while on here

 
Rep Power: 0

The price is now $100.

Damn. Too little, too late, or both.

Any issues with installing this bar on 7th Vics?

 
Rep Power: 284

just make sure you install it the right side up. sometimes the endlinks are hard to get off cuz of the rust, but besides that, nothing really difficult

 
Rep Power: 370

**** I just missed it. They jacked the price up to a bill.

does anyone know the link to grey's endlinks?....i would appreciate it thanks

 
Rep Power: 374

why are you breaking endlinks? ive had the 19mm bar on for 4 years and have never busted one...

 
Rep Power: 0

i was asking not because im breaking endlinks, it is because i want to get the DC5R 22mm sway bar and i don't want to break them...just as a precaution

 
Rep Power: 331

breaking endlinks is harder than you think. Mine have held up fine with my progress bar for over a year, and i beat the living crap out of my suspension just about everyday.

so your saying with a 22mm sway bar the stock civic endlinks will be ok?

 
Rep Power: 0

another question that i just thought of.....will the bushings that come with the 22mm DC5R bar work with the oem brackets?.....or are aftermarket bushings necessary?

 
Rep Power: 256

DC5R is OEM and it is so-to-speak made to fit our cars correctly. endlink will not break with it. oem brackets and stuff will fit our cars.

thanks for the direct answer i wanted man

ok i got a couple more questions...one, will a bigger sway bar in the back cause any oversteer problems?....like will the whole car start to slide if im turning then it suddendly loses grip? second, what will i encounter having the 22mm sway bar?.......if someone can answer both of these very well i will rep u good

thanks kev

bump for unanswered question

 
Rep Power: 0

yeah bump for this Q also im runing a 26mm front and 16mm back right know, if i got the 22mm rear sway what will this do if i push it to the limits.

Oversteer or Understeer.

Thanks.

 
Rep Power: 331

oversteer is fun, but ive only lost traction like that once, I was in a really hard turn and i lifted off the throttle and the whole car snapped and suddenly i was facing the other way. I dont understand the second part of your question, what will you encounter? i dunno the sway bar?

 
Rep Power: 293

It all depends on how you drive it at the limits (ie throttle lift off or trail braking etc..). With the set-up that you mentioned, if you're at the limit and not on brakes or lifting off the gas mid-corner, the car will still want to push. Having the 22mm in back will make the car easier to get to oversteer if you want it to.

so this bar will fit our cars?
