hell yea...I want some! Only $260 for both F & R!?! Sweet! Do you have to put the car on jack stands (releave the weight) to remove the front sway bar?? For some reason I kinda thought that before u remove or install a front sway bar, you need to put the front of the car on jack stands...am i right??

(basically i have to remove the OEM bar before i can adjust my KYB AGX's)

as a enthusiast constantly seeking better handling... i must inquire about the sway bars you seem to possess and have installed on your beautiful vehicle...

not hand over your source xP

Why's it pointless? Just curious as to what your reason is. Or maybe I missunderstood what you were trying to say.

To reduce understeer, you'll want to remove the front sway bar and get a bigger rear.
I've been autocrossing for 2 years and all the fwd Honda's that compete competatively run only a big rear sway bar. Some do run front sway's, but they're usually the tiny OEM bars with a much larger rear.

I drove the car with just the rear sway and there was a slight difference, but with both in its like day and nite...

in this kit, the front is really thick and the back is slightly thicker then stock... or is it the other way around? well ill look tomorrow for u and take pics...

I'm sure you've seen auto-x courses before. They're usually short with tight turns and you barely ever get out of 2nd gear. On the street maybe having the front is more favorable since it makes the car feel more stable. But under hard cornering, you'll typically find that only a rear sway will reduce a lot of understeer.

I've actually never seen a 1st Gen CL auto-x before. Some Accords show up and we used to have a guy in an Auto 2nd Gen CL-S race all the time. If you make it out to one, have someone takes some pics.
