Rsx rear lower sway bar 22mm will it fit 2k1 civic

Just wondering if anyone has one or would know if a factory rsx type r rear lower sway bar 22mm would fit on a 2k1 civic coupe. I know a lot of people have the rsx type s rear lower factory bar 18/19mm I think, someone's selling it on ebay, here's the link

Thanks, link

Fixed link

and yes, it fits....you will need the BUSHINGS though.

Remember, with a 22mm you will seriously need a lower tie bar. I think 19mm is more than sufficient though.

22mm is too thick, 19mm(rsx typeS is good enough), u gonna rip the chassy if u put 22mm, and dont forget to put front strut rear strut and rear lower tie together to secure teh frame

You don't need it, but highly recommended. Even the $20 ebay tie bar will prevent your rear frame from bending... wise investment no?

You can use the stock bushings, fits fine but try to get the rsx ones.

And the dealership price i believe is $100-125

you'll need new bushings.

you dont need a tie bar for a 19mm, but it helps.

I've been riding on the 19mm for almost a year now without a tie bar... going to grab my billet neuspeed tie bar soon though...
