The fronts appear the same (maybe the Eibach is slightly bigger, but they are both tubular, correct?)

What is the difference in the rear? I know it is slightly thicker, but is the stock bar tubular and the eibach solid?

Also, what kind of difference will this make.

Basically, I am weighing my options. Is this really worth the $300+ I spent on it?

I have the eibach sways before my teins, and imo they helped alot when i was running stock suspesion. If i get to do this over again, i would just pick up the rear comptech TL sways since its cheaper (less than 150?)and you don't really need the front as the aftermarket and stock are almost identical. lol call me a ricer but i like the red on my eibach sway bar, they stand out if you just knee down a little

4ank,

Yes, the front anti-sawy bars OEM compared to aftermarket are typically nearly identical except for tubular wall thickness. The rear bar is far too soft and typical for Honda needs beefing to get rid of that oversteer (stock dia 15mm solid). Comptech offers their rear bar I recall 22mm dia solid for only $129. CompTech also uses rubber bushings compatible with your stock bars. Rubber offers more road noise isolation though hard ploymer bushings used on the chassis (not the end mounts) allows the bar to come into play earler in roll though you'll get some definite road noise and eventually squeaking over driveway aprons.

a stiffer rear bar will (all else being equal) increase oversteer, not reduce it.

most fwd cars understeer - in many cases, a stiffer rear bar can neutralize that effect.

TankMonkey,

Correct. 'Got my over and under mixed up.

Correction to my reply to the thread's requestor on the rear anti-sway bar from a conversation with an Acura parts guy having his parts book in hand:
- OEM non-type S is dia 15mm
- OEM type S is dia 19mm
- CompTech dia 22mm ($129 last checked) - good substitute to stock

Do I understand this correctly, buying a front bar is pretty much useless but the rear is a good idea? Thanks,

1-1/16" Tubular Front (27mm) ,7/8" Solid Rear (22 mm)...well I bought the Comptech Sway kit recently...when it comes in and I slap it on with the Neuspeed front upper tie bar, I'll let cha know

EDIT:EIBACH Sway Bar Set - 3.2L including Type S - Front Diameter 27mm - Rear Diameter 23mm

Eibach is only 1 mm larger than Comptech...
