Future Setup: What do you think??? Suggestions.....
I have progress springs on my car now & I have to install my camber kit.
I was gonna get Koni's
Spoon Front Strut bar
Spoon Rear Tie bar
Progress Sway bar kit
Does anyone know if the rear strut bar from the DC5's fit our car....the front fits so would it be safe to assume the rear fits.
Thanks for the input.

its ok, the mugen strut bars are better because of welded ends... the progress sway bars are real good. all dc5 stuff will fit some with light modification. im not sure about the springs...

The Spoon Sports Rear Upper Strut Bar fits. It was put on the Hondawerx K20 swap project. I think Grey also put it on his car.
I would have to recomment the Neuspeed Front Upper Strut Bar over the Spoon Sports one. I feel the less parts in the Neuspeed design equals less chance of flex.
You will most likely get the best handling out of a true coilover setup (TEIN, B&G, etc.) compared to a spring/KONI setup. The KONI sleeve design for the front struts are kinda ghetto if you ask me.
PS: Don't forget the polyurethane bushings.

The Spoon front strut bar and rear strut bars fit on our cars. Perfectly I might add. Although the front strut bar has some issues with the center bar not being on tight enough. I bought new hardware to fix the problem, but I need a somewhat more creative solution to have the problem off my mind. I might be selling a kit to fix the Spoon Sports front and rear strut bar weirdness... 
Anyway, all rear strut bars for the DC5 that span the strut towers should fit. Although some attach to this one raised area that seperates the cabin from the trunk and our cars do not have a threaded hole there. Easy fix though if you decide to get such a bar. The Type R has this sort of a bar. The Cusco rear strut bar for the RSX is like this too...
